ST. LOUIS, June 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stereotaxis (NYSE: STXS), the global leader in innovative robotic technologies for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, today announced it has reached a significant milestone of over 400 scientific publications now documenting the clinical benefits of Stereotaxis robotic technology. A complete, searchable database of all publications is available online at http://www.RoboticEP.com/Clinical-Data.

The clinical benefits of Robotic Magnetic Navigation have been extensively validated in high-quality clinical literature and in the real-world treatment of over one-hundred-thousand arrhythmia patients, said David Fischel, Chairman and CEO. We are proud of the depth and breadth of clinical data demonstrating the benefits of robotics to patients and healthcare providers. We congratulate and thank the physicians globally who have contributed to this robust body of clinical evidence.

The most recent publication, published in Clinical Cardiology by Dr. Jin Qi and colleagues from Ruijin Hospital in Shanghai, describes clinical outcomes of 1,003 consecutive robotic cardiac ablation procedures performed between 2010 and 2019. It is among the largest single-center publications documenting efficacy, safety, speed and learning curve of Robotic Magnetic Navigation. The 1,003 patients suffered from a broad range of arrhythmias with 55% of the patients being treated for Atrial Fibrillation, 29% for Ventricular Tachycardia or Premature Ventricular Contraction, 11% for Supraventricular Tachycardia, and 5% for Atrial Tachycardia or Atrial Flutter. Key findings include:

Dr. Jin commented, At our hospital, robotic guided ablation for cardiac arrhythmias clearly and consistently provides improved patient care and an excellent operator experience. We look forward to more progress in the future as robotic technology creates a foundation for artificial intelligence and remote treatment in interventional electrophysiology.
