Wednesday, December 14, 2022

Results from the randomized study reveal the PURE EP™ System’s potential to promote shorter procedural times and higher cost savings during catheter ablations.

Key Points: 
  • Results from the randomized study reveal the PURE EP™ System’s potential to promote shorter procedural times and higher cost savings during catheter ablations.
  • The primary objective was to determine the difference in procedural times when comparing ablations guided by PURE EP™’s electrocardiogram (EGM) visualization to the conventional ECG recording system.
  • Study results demonstrated that the PURE EP™ System led to a mean procedure time reduction of 11.3 minutes.
  • Given that the mean cost of operating room time is approximately $37 per minute1, the procedural time savings demonstrated by the PURE EP™ System suggest potential cost savings of approximately $418.10 per procedure.
