A system for ablating tissue comprises an ergonomically shaped handpiece having a proximal end and a distal end. An energy source is near the distal end of the handpiece and is adapted to deliver energy to the tissue and create a zone of ablation that blocks abnormal electrical activity in the tissue. The system also includes a barrier near a front face of the energy source. The barrier is adapted to prevent direct contact between blood and the energy source so that the blood does not coagulate on the front face.

Un système d'ablation tissulaire comprend une pièce à main de forme ergonomique ayant une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale. Une source d'énergie est située à proximité de l'extrémité distale de la pièce à main et est conçue pour délivrer de l'énergie au tissu et créer une zone d'ablation qui bloque l'activité électrique anormale dans le tissu. Le système comprend également une barrière à proximité d'une face avant de la source d'énergie. La barrière sert à empêcher tout contact direct entre le sang et la source d'énergie de façon que le sang ne coagule pas sur la face avant.
