Clinical Proof for the RHYTHMIA™ HDx Mapping System

DIRECTSENSE Technology: the Power of Local Impedance

Learn from a board of experts how DIRECTSENSE™ Technology combines local impedance accurate measurement through the mini-electrodes embedded into IntellaNav MiFi OI ablation catheter into the RHYTHMIA HDx mapping system to reach a new dimension in ultra-high density mapping and ablation.

Dr. Noonan: Redefining Cardiac Mapping and Ablation

Dr. Daniel Noonan discusses how RHYTHMIA HDx has changed the cardiac mapping space and his practice at St. Luke's Boise Medical Center. He shares how RHYTHMIA HDx high-definition mapping system and features have improved his workflow, his approach to complex cases and his patients.

Dr. Yang: Unparalleled Clarity in Cardiac Mapping Video

Listen to Dr. Felix Yang from Maimonides Medical Center in New York City talk about how RHYTHMIA HDx has surpassed the clarity of other cardiac mapping and navigation systems. “Whereas frequently we only have a rough idea of how an arrhythmia would propagate and we may deliver empiric ablation lines to treat them, the high-definition maps acquired by the system allow us to actually see what are the critical components of an arrhythmia circuit.”
