STAR Apollo gives Electrophysiologists (EPs) a precise, patient-specific map by identifying sources of activation based on the fundamental electrophysiological principles of activation precedence. This result gives insight into targeted, discrete, and efficient ablation strategies.
- Powered by deterministic AI algorithms rooted in first principles of electrophysiology
- Proprietary algorithms identify Repetitive Patterns of Activation (RPAs)
- Reveals and ranks top three Early Sites of Activation (ESAs)
Literature shows that targeted ablation can:
STAR Apollo Mapping Software leverages intraprocedural data generated from a standard mapping catheter and gives you unique insights after each acquisition.
STAR Apollo integrates with your existing mapping system* with just a laptop and a data cable – nothing else required.
* Compatible with Abbott’s EnSite and JNJ’s CARTO 3.
When AF Requires More than Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI)
In complex cases, the arrhythmia often requires ablating beyond the pulmonary veins where the sources may be more difficult to locate with standard mapping workflows alone. For redo patients, in particular, knowing where to ablate next requires deeper insight.
Real Patients. Real Results.
When physicians used the STAR Apollo Mapping System to inform their ablation strategies:
Freedom from AF/AT at 1 Year
* v. 50% for PVI only, p=0.003
^ early read out of multi-site US post-market study
To help electrophysiologists confidently plan effective atrial fibrillation ablation strategies – so patients achieve lasting freedom from AF.
