In addition to AcQTrack, the SlowZone Locator algorithm represents a pioneering advancement in substrate mapping. It is the first and only mapping algorithm that identifies consistent areas of slow conduction over the entire atrium. With the SlowZone Locator, physicians create one or more maps in the atria, which the algorithm then combines into one composite map for analyzing areas of consistent slow conduction in each patient.
“I believe these algorithmic functions will have a significant influence on our overall treatment strategies, particularly in complex arrhythmia cases like atrial fibrillation,” said Sarah Hussain, M.D., Penn State Health, Hershey, Penn. “To be able to clearly see abnormal conduction patterns associated with AF while also having the opportunity to combine several full-chamber maps could provide us with brand new insights about the mechanisms of these complex atrial arrhythmias. We’re looking forward to working with this technology and continuing our pursuit of more individualized therapy approaches for our patients.”
