Problem
Current methods for mapping heart electrical activity during pacemaker implantation lack the precision needed for optimal lead placement, leading to procedural complications and suboptimal patient outcomes. Existing ECG technologies may not fully capture the complexities of ventricular activation patterns, especially in cases of dyssynchrony.
Solution
VDI Technologies offers Ventricular Dyssynchrony Imaging (VDI), a system that utilizes ultra-high frequency electrocardiogram (UHF-ECG) technology to enhance heart electrical activation mapping. The VDI system provides real-time UHF-ECG depolarization maps, enabling clinicians to visualize ventricular synchrony during pacemaker implantation and optimize lead placement. By offering a more comprehensive analysis of heart activation, VDI aims to improve the accuracy of pacemaker implantation on the first attempt, reduce procedural complications, and improve patient outcomes. The system includes the VDIAQ UHF-ECG amplifier, specialized 14-lead ECG cables, and VDI Vision software for advanced processing and visualization.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes electrophysiologists, cardiologists, and cardiac surgeons involved in pacemaker implantation and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) procedures.
