Research Project
8902265
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): CardioSolv Ablation Technologies, Inc. aims to develop and commercialize a simulation-based approach for non-invasive prediction of the optimal targets of catheter ablation in patients with infarct-related ventricular tachycardia. Successful completion of the commercialization will result in a major paradigm shift in the clinical procedure of ventricular tachycardia ablation, where accurate prediction of the optimal targets of ablation in each patient heart will be carried out by CardioSolv's methodology prior to the clinical procedure. Guided by these predictions, delivery of ablation will be swift and precise eradicating all infarct-related ventricular tachycardias with minimum lesion sizes. This will resul in a dramatic improvement in the efficacy of and tolerance for the therapy, as well as in reduction of post-procedure complications. The aim of this project is to implement our simulation-based ablation guidance as a commercial-grade software medical device ready for regulatory approval. To achieve this aim, CardioSolv will develop the software while following the strict quality procedures required by global regulatory bodies. Throughout development, testing will ensure that all preliminary results proving the methodology will be replicated by the final commercial product.
