$RMED Reminder: Ra Medical Systems Announces Name and Ticker Symbol Changes
https://www.accesswire.com/774776/Reminder-Ra-Medical-Systems-Announces-Name-and-Ticker-Symbol-Changes
Name change to Catheter Precision, Inc. is effective on August 17, 2023, with trading under new ticker symbol VTAK to begin on August 18, 2023
FORT MILL, SC / ACCESSWIRE / August 17, 2023 / Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE American:RMED) announced that its Board of Directors has approved changing the Company's corporate name to "Catheter Precision, Inc." The effective date of the name change is today, August 17, 2023. The Company has reserved the ticker symbol "VTAK" with the NYSE American, and the Company's common stock is expected to begin trading on the NYSE American under its new name and the new trading symbol effective as of the market open on August 18, 2023. The Company's new website will be unveiled shortly in conjunction with the name change. For now, investors can continue to visit www.ramed.com.
David Jenkins, interim CEO of RMED, commented, "The changing of our name signifies the nearing of the completion of our conversion to a company focused solely on cardiac electrophysiology, and away from our previous laser catheter business. We have shut down that previous business and no longer market any of those legacy products."
Jenkins continued, "VTAK is a symbol chosen because of its similarity to V-Tach, a shortened version of Ventricular Tachyarrhythmia, also known as VT. VT, a fast heartbeat of the ventricle, is a disease state which falls under the purview of our VIVO product, where we show, in a 3D computer model of the heart, the earliest electrical activation of the VT. The name VIVO itself is an anachronym for βView Into Ventricular Onset'."

https://www.accesswire.com/765775/RMEDs-LockeT-Device-Utilized-in-Structural-Heart-Procedures
Provides Evidence of Efficacy in Large Diameter Sheath Procedures, Expanding Use Beyond Electrophysiology Market
FORT MILL, SC / ACCESSWIRE / July 6, 2023 / Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (RMED:NYSE/American) today announced that its new LockeT device, used as a suture retention device for percutaneous closures, has now been utilized in structural heart procedures. The latest use was in six patients undergoing Watchman & Amulet procedures, where the left atrial appendage is closed off in patients with atrial fibrillation, and two patients receiving the AVEIR Leadless Pacemaker at HCA Trident Medical Center in North Charleston, South Carolina.
HCA Trident Medical Center's Dr. Frank Cuoco, commented, "The LockeT device is another tool in our arsenal that provides ease of use and greatly assists in the femoral closure of the openings from large diameter sheaths. The LockeT allows for greater patient comfort, and hemostasis is achieved in a matter of minutes."
David Jenkins, interim CEO of Ra Medical stated, "Although the electrophysiology market is quite large, we are pleased that the additional evidence of the LockeT use within the structural heart market takes us beyond electrophysiology procedures, and includes not only the LAA device implants, but also the TAVR devices, and certain pacemaker devices such as the AVEIR leadless pacemaker.
Watchman is a product and trademark of Boston Scientific (BSX). AMULET and AVEIR are products and trademark of Abbott (ABT).

$RMED Ra Medicalβs Electrophysiology Division Announces First Hospital to Complete 100 Procedures Using the VIVO System
https://www.accesswire.com/760298/Ra-Medicals-Electrophysiology-Division-Announces-First-Hospital-to-Complete-100-Procedures-Using-the-VIVO-System
FORT MILL, SC / ACCESSWIRE / June 12, 2023 / Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (RMED:NYSE/American) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Catheter Precision, Inc., has had its first customer, Heart Hospital of New Mexico at Lovelace Medical Center, complete 100 ventricular ablation procedures with the assistance of VIVO, a non-invasive 3D imaging system that identifies the earliest electrical activation of a ventricular arrhythmia.
"This is a significant milestone for Catheter Precision", said David Jenkins, interim CEO. "We continue to believe that physicians and hospitals will find value using VIVO and to see a hospital use it this much in a relatively short period of time demonstrates that the benefits of VIVO are being recognized and that our utilization strategies are working."
VIVO is used to assist physicians in physicians in pre-procedure planning for ventricular ablations. When used in advance of the procedure, VIVO can provide additional information to the physician about the patient's heart to streamline what are often long and complicated procedures lasting 4-5 hours.
Dr Sean Mazer, MD, clinical Electrophysiologist at the Heart Hospital of New Mexico and president of the New Mexico Heart Institute/Lovelace Medical Group says, "We have implemented VIVO in all of our PVC ablations. It has helped speed up and improve the workflow for our most difficult procedures. It has also improved the chances of successful ablation for the patients. Some of these arrhythmias were not treatable without VIVO."
Catheter Precision recently built out a direct sales team in early 2023 to expand upon the successful, but limited launch and to expand its footprint across the United States.
