nContact is the Catalyst to Expand EP Cardiologist Techniques and Capabilities The EP technology platform is highly sophisticated with mapping, navigation and diagnostic tools but has relied upon ablation catheters which were not designed to create complete, long linear lesions. nContact’s primary contribution to the EP technology platform is its ability to create long, linear epicardial lesions under direct endoscopic visualization.

Comprehensive and complete lesion patterns applied minimally invasively, and complemented by predictive intra-operative diagnostics, will allow EPs to offer a viable treatment option for persistent and permanent AF patients. Combining epicardial-endocardial techniques and technologies in a single setting  opens the door to an expanded AF patient population.
