"Acutus Medical has an unwavering focus on developing technology that accelerates success and improves outcomes in electrophysiology procedures. A historical lack of innovation in cardiac mapping led to the unfortunate and common belief that repeat ablations are simply unavoidable; the UNCOVER-AF results suggest we can do better with AcQMap imaging and adaptive therapy," said Vince Burgess, CEO of Acutus Medical. "These early results have only scratched the surface of potential. Unprecedented clarity with AcQMap could help physicians improve AF ablation outcomes by providing tailored therapy options and reducing the need for repeat procedures. That's improvement that saves time, reduces financial burden and most importantly makes life better for patients."

AcQMap combines proprietary charge mapping and high-resolution ultrasound imaging to create animated, three-dimensional images in seconds that display precise anatomy and atrial arrhythmias. With AcQMap, physicians can create a full-chamber, 360-degree look at the atrium in real time for each individual patient, enabling truly customized treatment for every case using an iterative map, ablate, re-map, ablate strategy.
