The Niobe System is intended to navigate compatible magnetic devices through tissue to designated target sites in the right and left heart and coronary vasculature, neurovascular and peripheral vasculature by orienting the device tip in a desired direction.

The Cardiodrive Catheter Advancement System (CAS) is intended to automatically advance and retract compatible magnetic electrophysiology (EP) mapping and ablation catheters inside the patient’s heart when used in conjunction with a Stereotaxis MNS.

The Cardiodrive system is not intended to advance the EP mapping and ablation catheters through the coronary vasculature or the coronary sinus.

The Cardiodrive system is not intended to advance or retract non-compatible catheters and/or other non-compatible devices into the neurovasculature.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
