“The Stereotaxis system enables you to navigate, map and ablate in ‘challenging’ conditions and areas. It has excellent capabilities in the ventricles of the heart.”
“The Stereotaxis system enables you to navigate, map and ablate in ‘challenging’ conditions and areas. It has excellent capabilities in the ventricles of the heart.”
“For ventricular, it really shines in terms of ease of use, patient safety and a growing literature demonstrating improved outcomes. For AF, the outcomes are comparable, times are the same, and the future of automation may be a game changer…”
“I would really like to see the perception change in the EP community around Stereotaxis as it can offer safety and efficacy advantages, especially in VT/PVC patients.”
“Robotic ablation has been indispensable for us at Kaiser.”
“If the system is now irreplaceable for complex anatomies such as adult congenital heart disease, it is also fantastic in atrial tachycardia and AVNRT ablation in cases of catheter instability at the slow pathway site.”
“There are so many advantages to robotic navigation – precision, accuracy, and reach in remote areas of the heart without difficulty – but X-ray exposure reduction for me is the most valuable aspect.”
“[Stereotaxis] enables extremely safe procedures for all ablations, with huge advantages especially for VT. It also allows me to execute procedures without getting so tired, which could extend my career as an ablation physician.”
“With Stereotaxis technology, I’m able to move the catheter easily into every nook and corner of the heart, maintain catheter stability in highly mobile cardiac structures, reduce fluoroscopy time and fatigue, and achieve durable long-term results.”
“I like the Stereotaxis system because it is safe, easy to control, has stable focal-contact and allows for less X-ray exposure.”
“With the Stereotaxis system, we are able to address all types of arrhythmias… This includes not only typical flutters or AV-node-dependent dysrhythmias, but also complex arrhythmias, such as VT and AF.”
