Problem
Cardiac electrophysiological mapping and ablation procedures for treating arrhythmias often lack precision, leading to incomplete lesion formation and potential recurrence of atrial fibrillation. Existing technologies may not provide sufficient real-time data and visualization to guide effective and safe ablation.
Solution
Johnson & Johnson MedTech | Electrophysiology provides a suite of integrated diagnostic and therapeutic solutions centered around the CARTO® 3 System to enhance the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. The CARTO® 3 system enables electrophysiologists to create detailed 3D maps of the heart, facilitating accurate identification of arrhythmia sources. Therapeutic ablation catheters, such as the QDOT MICRO™ and VARIPULSE™ platforms, are designed to create precise and durable lesions. Ultrasound solutions like the SOUNDSTAR CRYSTAL™ Ultrasound Catheter offer enhanced intracardiac imaging to guide procedures and improve outcomes. The integration of these tools empowers physicians to personalize treatment strategies, improve workflow reproducibility, and ultimately enhance the quality of life for patients with atrial fibrillation and other cardiac arrhythmias.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes electrophysiologists, cardiologists, and other healthcare professionals specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, particularly atrial fibrillation.
