Electrophysiology areas of research interest
Research requests for a range of product-related and disease-related areas are reviewed by the J&J MedTech Electrophysiology group. Submissions are not restricted to the following areas of research interest. All submissions from investigators aimed at advancing scientific and clinical use and enhancing comprehension of J&J MedTech Electrophysiology products will be taken into consideration.
We are currently looking for research in the following areas:
Cardiac ablation and procedures:
-
Prospective evaluation on clinical outcomes, patient experience, arrythmia burden and impact on clinical
practice.
-
Procedural best practices, sedation, workflow, lesion characterization of PFA solutions.
-
Optimal Workflow with VISITAG SURPOINT™ for PVI & PVI+ (PAF and PsAF patients) with Dual Energy THERMOCOOL
SMARTTOUCH™ SF Catheter.
-
Assessing radiofrequency and pulsed field ablation in atrial tachycardias and VT patients using QDOT MICRO™ or
Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF catheters.
-
Acute and long-term safety and outcomes of different PFA solutions.
Imaging, Mapping and Navigation:
-
Procedural best practices for efficiency and outcomes with Integrated solutions for ablation (proximity/contact
force/Ablation Indices)
-
Procedural best practices for efficiency and outcomes related to CARTO™ Modules features and OPTRELL™ and
OCTARAY™ Mapping Catheters.
-
Outcomes specific to economics and clinical use for patient segmentation, arrhythmia diagnosis and treatment.
-
Impact of CARTO™ solutions on procedural efficiency (case duration, zero fluoroscopy, types of sedation, etc.)
& clinic use and benefit
Intracardiac and real-time imaging devices/procedures:
-
Procedural best practices for efficiency and outcomes related to NUVISIONTM 4D Catheter imaging features in LAAO
procedures.
-
Procedural best practices for efficiency and outcomes related to CARTO™ mapping & Imaging system features.
-
Optimal Workflow and outcomes comparison between different imaging solutions (ICE 4D, 2D, TEE and others).
-
Reduced procedure related complications, resource utilization and evidence based clinical use impact.
