Accuresp

Question 1

How does breathing impact the procedure?

Answer 1

The heart moves in conjunction with the lungs, which means the catheter also moves.

Mapping data would be less precise

Question 2

Respiratory gating

Answer 2

Only collect data at the end of respiration.

Provides a consistent phase where heart movement is minimal so catheters are in repeatable positions while acquiring data

Question 3

How is respiration measured?

Answer 3

Accuresp module monitors respiratory movement of catheters and inter patch currents
