MAGiC is short for “magnetic interventional ablation catheter,” an abbreviation Stereotaxis also uses for its FDA-cleared MAGiC Sweep robotically navigated high-density electrophysiology (EP) mapping catheter
The St. Louis-based device developer’s MAGiC ablation catheter is designed for radiofrequency cardiac ablation to treat heart arrhythmia.
Specifically, the MAGiC ablation catheter’s indication covers cardiac electrophysiological mapping, delivering diagnostic pacing stimuli, and the creation of endocardial lesions to treat supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in congenital heart disease patients of any age who have underlying anatomic abnormalities and/or a surgical history that limits vascular or target chamber access via conventional manual catheter navigation.
