For the first time in the electrophysiological (EP) industry, a heart arrhythmia patient in Italy was treated remotely by a doctor in Boston using the CARTO XP Electroanatomical Mapping System. The procedure took place at the Heart Rhythm Society annual meeting in May.
The system combines the accuracy of the CARTO System with the operating ease of Windows software.
It integrates into an EP environment, adding tools that enhance clinical capabilities in an easy-to-upgrade platform. The intended use of the system is catheter-based EP cardiac mapping.

A 1064 nm wavelength laser technology, the Atrilaze Surgical Ablation system complements its existing 810 nm technology.
The system is indicated for delivery of laser light to soft tissue, including cardiac tissue, during surgical procedures. Indications include the incision, excision, dissection, vaporization, ablation or coagulation of soft tissue.

CardioVive DM is a professional-grade, intuitive AED with manual override and ECG monitoring.
It features automated voice prompts for the layperson while allowing physicians to switch from AED to manual defibrillation. Patented-powerful algorithms and variable escalating energy delivers the right amount of energy to the individual patient. The system also has optional 3-lead continuous ECG patient monitoring.

A universal programmer for implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and pacemakers, the Merlin Patient Care System is designed to help physicians conduct tests, analyze therapeutic and diagnostic data and program implanted devices.

Combining the Progreat microcatheter with a Glidewire GT, the Progreat Coaxial Microcatheter System is designed to increase procedural efficiency and reduce the risks of procedural problems, such as kinking.

The ZIPwire Hydrophilic Guide Wire features a number of elements designed to enhance the ability to steer, handle and track the device.
The wire's coating supports smooth exchanges with other devices and is designed to support crossing of difficult lesions. A flexible and refined tip is designed to allow physicians to maneuver through tortuous blood vessels and facilitates smooth catheter advancement and precise positioning. A robust nitinol core resists kinking and transmits rotation along the length of the device (torque transmission), which improves maneuverability.

A new single-use biliary balloon dilator, MaxPass delivers procedural efficiency through rapid balloon deflation for the time-sensitive team conducting Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-Pancreatography (ERCP). It is designed to work with the Olympus JF/TJF and V-System duodenoscopes.

The On-Site vascular closure device is designed for precise and effective percutaneous arterial closure without leaving intra-arterial components behind that can potentially cause trauma.
Over-the-wire placement secures collagen precisely above the arteriotomy to achieve hemostasis. The precision closure device delivers an extravascular collagen sponge plug at the femoral arterial puncture site. Advanced Micropore sponge collagen provides a mechanical barrier within the tissue tract while enhancing the body’s natural healing process.

A computer-based simulator for helping users acquire, develop, maintain and assess the motor skills and cognitive knowledge needed to perform intravenous access procedures, the CathSim AccuTouch system has been integral to training programs. A new Phlebotomy module adds safety needles and an updated collection tube draw order. These advancements align CathSim procedures with standards recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI, formerly NCCLS) and contribute to the system's realistic training environment.

At 29 cc, OVATIO DR by ELA Medical is the world’s smallest dual-chamber (DR) ICD, incorporating the AAIsafeR pacing mode and PARAD , which detects ventricular tachyarrhythmias.
The AAIsafeR promotes heart activity by limiting unnecessary stimulation in the right ventricle, and the PARAD/
