A Left‐Sided Accessory Pathway Revisited with Remote Retrograde Magnetic Navigation
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2007Accessory pathways can be ablated with a high success rate. Occasionally, recurrences appear after successful procedures, sometimes shortly after the end of the procedure. We describe a successful ablation using remote magnetic navigation of a single catheter using stored vectors after recurrence of accessory pathway conduction while the patient was ...

Initial experience with remote magnetic navigation for left ventricular lead placement
Acta Cardiologica, 2009A novel magnetic navigation system allows remote steering of guidewires and catheters. This system may be used for left ventricular lead placement for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We sought to evaluate the feasibility and safety of magnetic guidewire navigation for CRT procedures.123 consecutive patients underwent CRT implantation/revision ...

Long-term outcomes of remote magnetic navigation for ablation of supraventricular tachycardias
Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology, 2015Little is known about the long-term outcomes of catheter ablation of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) using remote magnetic navigation system (RMN).One hundred twenty patients underwent catheter ablation of SVTs with RMN (Niobe, Stereotaxis, USA): atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT; n = 59), atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia ...

Impact of Remote Magnetic Catheter Navigation on Ablation Fluoroscopy and Procedure Time
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2008Background: Remote magnetic catheter navigation (RCN) is gaining acceptance in clinical cardiac electrophysiology, but details regarding how RCN affects procedure execution are not well characterized. Methods: From January 1, 2005, to November 30, 2007, 721 cases were retrospectively

Catheter Ablation Utilizing Remote Magnetic Navigation: A Review of Applications and Outcomes
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2012The utilization of the NIOBE™ magnetic navigation system (MNS, Stereotaxis, St. Louis, MO, USA) has increased significantly since the first published report in 2002. There has been much enthusiasm for this technology as a means to reduce radiation exposure to the patient and physician alike, and potentially decrease risks associated with catheter ...

Remote Magnetic Navigation to Map and Ablate Left Coronary Cusp Ventricular Tachycardia
Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2006Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and ventricular tachycardia may arise from the coronary cusps. Navigation, mapping, and ablation in the coronary cusps can be challenging. Remote magnetic navigation may offer an alternative to conventional manually operated catheters.We report a case of left coronary cusp ventricular tachycardia ablation using

Remote magnetic navigation for mapping and ablating right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia
Heart Rhythm, 2006Navigation, mapping, and ablation in the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) can be difficult. Catheter navigation using external magnetic fields may allow more accurate mapping and ablation.The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of RVOT tachycardia ablation using remote magnetic navigation.Mapping and ablation were performed in ...

ACUTE AND LONGITUDINAL EFFICACY WITH REMOTE MAGNETIC NAVIGATION FOR PVC ABLATION
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2019Remote magnetic navigation (RMN) is an alternative to manual catheter ablation of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). When compared to manual, RMN has a theoretical advantage of tip stability, which could result in higher acute procedural success.
