University of Kansas Medical Center Enhances Robotic Heart Care Program with Genesis Robotic Technology
November 06 2024 - 8:25AM
Stereotaxis (NYSE: STXS), a pioneer and global leader in surgical
robotics for minimally invasive endovascular intervention, today
announced that physicians at the University of Kansas Health System
have successfully treated the first patients using the advanced
Genesis Robotic Magnetic Navigation (RMN) System from Stereotaxis.
The health system is renowned for diagnosing and
treating complex heart conditions. The Genesis System is the latest
advancement in Robotic Magnetic Navigation technology. Robotic
Magnetic Navigation introduces the benefits of robotic precision
and safety to cardiac ablation, a common minimally invasive
procedure to treat arrhythmias. Tens of millions of individuals
worldwide suffer from arrhythmias – abnormal heart rhythms that
result when the heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an
irregular pattern. When left untreated, arrhythmias may
significantly increase the risk of stroke, heart failure, and
sudden cardiac arrest.
“For years, advanced robot technology has been
instrumental in our ability to deliver superior care to our
patients, allowing us to navigate complex cardiac procedures with
improved accuracy and safety,” said Dr. Seth Sheldon, Cardiac
Electrophysiologist at the health system. “The robotic precision
and stability offered by the Genesis System allows us to deliver
precise, personalized treatments to our patients, ultimately
improving outcomes and quality of life.”
“We are proud to continue our partnership with
the health system to deliver exceptional cardiac care to patients
in Kansas City,” said David Fischel, Chairman and CEO of
Stereotaxis. “We look forward to continuing to support their
successful and impactful robotic heart rhythm care program.”
