Does the NavX electroanatomic mapping system improve safety, reduce X-ray exposure, and increase accuracy during CRT-ICD implantation?
The use of the NavX electroanatomic mapping system during CRT-ICD implantation appears feasible, safe, and effective in reducing X-ray exposure.
The NavX system shows great potential during the implantation of an CRT-ICD device. It seems to be feasible, safe, and extremely beneficial in terms of a reduction in X-ray exposure. Furthermore, there is benefit of more detailed information and accuracy during the CS lead placement.
