NCT01222156

Brief Summary

The Magnetecs Catheter Guidance Control and Imaging (CGCI) system is a magnetic remote navigation system which is comprised of a magnetic chamber of eight electromagnets around the patient torso. The system can change the magnetic field almost instantaneously and enables almost real time manipulation of a special magnetic catheter (Maxwell mapping catheter) which results in accurate, repeatable, rapid and safe target acquisition within the four chambers of the human heart. The trial is a prospective, non-randomized, clinical one designed to test the study hypotheses of (a) technical equivalence of the study device in comparison to other magnetic remote navigation systems, (b) performance equivalence or non-inferiority of the study device target acquisition capability compared to presently used catheter navigation techniques, and (c) safety equivalence or non-inferiority of the study device in comparison to catheter navigation devices using other navigation techniques.
