Abbott Gains FDA Clearance for Mapping Sensor Enabled Catheter

The FDA cleared Abbott’s Advisor HD Grid mapping sensor enabled catheter for creating detailed maps of the heart.

The device is intended to improve cardiac ablation procedures by providing an inside view of the heart, allowing a more accurate identification of its anatomy.

The sensor captures information such as the direction and speed of cardiac signals, allowing for the creation of high-density cardiac tissue maps for better treatment regimens.
