Zusammenfassung:A method of determining a baseline impedance value of a first electrode of a plurality of electrodes located on a medical device for tissue contact detection includes measuring an impedance value of the first electrode generated in response to a drive signal to the first electrode. The method further includes assigning a baseline impedance value to the first electrode based on the impedance values measured over the predetermined time interval and determining a confidence value associated with the baseline impedance value. The method further includes determining a contact state of the first electrode using the baseline impedance value when the confidence value is at or above a predetermined threshold. 一种确定位于医疗装置上的多个电极中的第一电极的基线阻抗值以用于组织接触检测的方法,包括测量响应于对第一电极的驱动信号而生成的第一电极的阻抗值。该方法进一步包括基于在预定时间间隔内测量到的阻抗值向第一电极分配基线阻抗值以及确定与基线阻抗值相关联的置信值。该方法进一步包括当置信值处于或高于预定阈值时利用基线阻抗值来确定第一电极的接触状态。
