Electrophysiology Year in Review: 2007 The Three R's of Electrophysiology

VOLUME: 8 PUBLICATION DATE: Jan 01 2008

Robotics
At the Heart Rhythm Society annual scientific sessions in May 2007, the word for the day was robotics. There was a huge amount of buzz regarding the approval of Hansen Medical s Sensei Robotic Catheter System as well as the intrigue of the Stereotaxis Niobe^® Magnetic Navigation System. Another important phrase of the day was remote navigation. The Hansen Medical system is a robotic system that employs a 14 French steerable sheath in which the ablation catheter is passive. A large control station with a new concept in catheter manipulation was introduced at the meeting, where the entire system was on display. In addition, Stereotaxis, which uses magnetic navigation and soft flexible catheters guided by a magnetic field, was also on display.
