Navik 3D™ is a multi-component computer system that utilizes image processing methods to provide three-dimensional (3D) location of catheters in real-time from acquired two-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopic (fluoro) images. In addition, body surface electrocardiogram (ECG) and intracardiac electrogram (EGM) signals obtained from the patient recording and monitoring systems that already exist in the electrophysiology (EP) lab are digitized and displayed.Navik 3D utilizes data points from 3D catheter location and ECG-intracardiac EGM signals and uses this information to create and display 3D maps of the human heart. It does not require special catheters or patches, specially trained technicians, or fluoroscopy exposure beyond standard of care.
A dedicated computer with software that is a component of a cardiac mapping system and is used to process and store electronic information/data for the interpretation of cardiac physiological parameters received from the output of connected measuring devices [e.g., body surface or intracardiac electrocardiograph (ECG) sensors/transducers]. The measurements can be compared to pre-established diagnostic criteria for parameters such as cardiac blood flow, electrical conduction, or heart chamber geometry. The device may display real-time cardiac maps in various formats (e.g., electrical propagation maps, electrical potential maps, and cardiac chamber geometry maps).
