Remote Magnetic Navigation for Accurate, Real-time Catheter Positioning and Ablation in Cardiac Electrophysiology Procedures

New remote navigation systems have been developed to improve current limitations of conventional manually guided catheter ablation in complex cardiac substrates such as left atrial flutter. This protocol describes all the clinical and invasive interventional steps performed during a human electrophysiological study and ablation to assess the accuracy, safety and real-time navigation of the Cath...

Ablation of Post Transplant Atrial Flutter and Pseudo-fibrillation Using Magnetic Navigation via a Superior Approach

Ablation of cavotricuspid ishtmus flutter and atrial tachycardia in a complex substrate has never been reported using remote navigation via superior approach. Venous access was obtained via right internal jugular for ablation and left subclavian for duodecapolar catheter placement into the coronary sinus. In a posttransplant patient presenting with both regular and irregular tachycardia, both c...

Remote magnetic catheter navigation for cavotricuspid isthmus ablation in patients with common-type atrial flutter.

BACKGROUND Conventional catheter ablation of cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent atrial flutter is a widely applied standard therapy. Remote magnetic catheter navigation (RMN) may provide benefits for different ablation procedures, but its efficacy for CTI ablation has not been evaluated in a randomized, controlled trial. METHODS AND RESULTS Ninety patients undergoing de novo ablation of at...

Flutter ablation with remote magnetic navigation: comparison between the 8-mm tip, the irrigated tip and a manual approach.

INTRODUCTION Remote magnetic navigated ablation has proven its feasibility in a large group of arrhythmias. Until now only scarce data are available on the use for atrial flutter. In this study we compared remote magnetic navigation (RMN), using non-irrigated and irrigated tip catheters, to manual radiofrequency ablation for ablating typical atrial flutter. METHODS The 3 study groups consiste...
