Stereotaxis

Per the American Heart Association, over 4.3 million Americans suffer from some type of heart arrhythmia. RWJUH now offers a new robotic treatment for common and complex arrhythmias.

The Stereotaxis Gentle Touch Magnetic Navigation System offers a high level of precision and safety.

Physicians operate two huge magnets, which are positioned outside the body, to precisely maneuver catheters throughout the delicate cardiovascular system. With the computer to assist in precise navigation, the doctor is then able to focus on the patient and the outcome rather than the mechanics of the procedure.

Stereotaxis is used to treat a number of heart irregularities including arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter, as well as supraventricular and ventricular tachycardias. Call us at 1-800-439-5254.
