What is it indicated for?
Affera Integrated Mapping System:
The Affera Integrated Mapping System is intended to be used for catheter-based cardiac electrophysiological mapping. The mapping system allows pacing and real-time visualization of compatible catheters as well as display of cardiac maps in multiple formats. The acquired patient signals, including body surface electrocardiograms and intracardiac electrograms, may also be recorded and displayed on the system’s display screen.
Magnetic Localization Patch Kit:
Refer to the instructions for use accompanying the compatible electrophysiology catheter(s) used with the compatible mapping system for the specific indications for use.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
