RHYTHMIA HDx™ – Mapping System

RHYTHMIA HDx™ – Mapping System

The RHYTHMIA HDx™ Mapping System offers industry-defining cardiac mapping, a powerful analysis toolset designed to streamline targeting and clinical decision-making, and unique insights into tissue substrate and lesion formation during RF ablation. Taken together, the elements of RHYTHMIA HDx provide unrivalled speed and precision in cardiac mapping and enhanced guidance in ablation delivery, helping physicians optimize treatment approaches and patient outcomes

Benefits:

Mapping aims at elucidation of the mechanism or mechanisms of the cardiac rhythm, description of the propagation of activation from its initiation to its completion within a region of interest, and identification of the site of origin or a critical site of conduction to serve as a target for catheter ablation and destruction of targeted locations.

Technical Parameters:

cardiac mapping is performed with catheters introduced percutaneously into the heart chambers that sequentially record the endocardial electrograms with the purpose of correlating local electrogram to cardiac anatomy.
