The MAGiC catheter is a robotically navigated magnetic interventional ablation catheter for minimally invasive cardiac ablation procedures. Used in conjunction with Stereotaxis’ robotic systems, the MAGiC catheter is designed to provide unparalleled catheter precision, reach, and stability when diagnosing and treating cardiac arrhythmias.
Robotic Cardiac Ablation Catheter Technology
Precision
MAGiC’s 1mm/1° precision is unmatched by even the most skilled hands. Navigating directly from the catheter tip, you avoid the inherent errors of translating force from the handle through the catheter shaft.
Reach
MAGiC enables navigation to anatomy that is often unreachable. It’s designed with a flexible shaft, free from the constraints of pull wires, to accommodate an unprecedented number of twists and turns without compromising steerability.
Stability
MAGiC maintains approximately 15 grams of consistent force throughout the cardiac cycle. Being magnetically pulled to the tissue, it avoids the wide fluctuations in contact force of manual catheters.
Indication for Use
The MAGiC Magnetic Interventional Ablation Catheter is indicated for cardiac electrophysiological mapping, delivering diagnostic pacing stimuli, and for the creation of endocardial lesions to treat supraventricular tachycardia (e.g., macroreentrant atrial tachycardia, focal atrial tachycardia, atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia, and atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia) in patients with congenital heart disease in whom vascular or target chamber access by conventional manual catheter navigation is limited due to underlying anatomic abnormalities and/or previous surgical interventions.
MAGiC, together with Stereotaxis RMNS (Robotic Magnetic Navigation Systems), is intended to be used during radio-frequency ablation to produce local lesions in cardiac tissue for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, for electrophysiological mapping, and for delivering stimulation pulses.
