Remote magnetic navigation in atrial fibrillation

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2012
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is of profound public health importance and is largely a disease of aging and is responsible for increased morbidity- and mortality-related healthcare expenditures. Catheter ablation to isolate the pulmonary veins has become the therapy of choice for treatment of drug-refractory AF.

Electrocardiogram Acquisition During Remote Magnetic Catheter Navigation

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2019
Electrocardiogram (ECG) acquisition is required during catheter treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. The remote magnetic navigation technology allows the catheter to be moved automatically inside the heart chambers using large external magnets. Each change of position of the catheter requires fast motion of the magnets, therefore magnetic fluxes are ...

Forces on cardiac implantable electronic devices during remote magnetic navigation

Clinical Research in Cardiology, 2012
Remote magnetic navigation systems are used for catheter navigation in cardiac electrophysiological ablation procedures. In this setting, ferromagnetic particles will be moved by changes in the magnetic field. It is unknown to what extent cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are affected by the magnetic field when using magnetic navigation ...

A Left‐Sided Accessory Pathway Revisited with Remote Retrograde Magnetic Navigation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2007
Accessory 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, 2009
A 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 ...
