…study, conducted at Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, compared Robotic Magnetic Navigation (RMN)-guided cardiac ablation with manual radiofrequency (RF) ablation and manual cryoablation. The study’s primary endpoint was long-term freedom from arrhythmia recurrence, with a mean follow-up time of 5.5 years. AV(N)RTs cause abnormally fast heartbeats and are the most common supraventricular tachyarrhythmias (SVT) in children without structural heart disease. Left untreated, frequent episodes may weaken the heart and lead to heart failure, said Stereotaxis. The median age of patients in the study was 14 years at the time of treatment. Patients treated using RMN had 94.4% freedom…
