- Non-invasive arrhythmia technology maps using only the data from a 12 lead ECG
- vMap provides actionable mapping results in minutes.
- Blinded, multi-center study with analysis by an independent core laboratory
- Results to be presented for the first time at Heart Rhythm 2022
Vektor Medical, Inc. today announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance for its novel computational ECG mapping system, vMap™. vMap is designed to map potential arrhythmia sources (hot spots) associated with stable or unstable arrhythmias anywhere in the heart – including all four chambers, the septal wall, and the outflow tracts – in less than three minutes using only ECG data, to improve outcomes in ablation procedures. Following clearance, the vMap s
A dual-center study reported that vMap™, as part of a new, non-invasive workflow - with Varian’s CRA system - improved efficiency and precision for radio-ablation therapy in these study subjects. The study showed that the radio-ablation administered as a part of the enhanced workflow also significantly reduced ICD shocks for patients receiving the therapy.

COVID-19 is associated with myocardial inflammation which may cause or exacerbate arrhythmias. A study led by Dr. David Krummen was presented at the Taiwan Heart Rhythm Society - Cutting-Edge Care for Heart Rhythm on April 17-18, 2021. The study reports that use of vMap™ computational 12-lead ECG analysis was able to provide arrhythmia insights beyond those available from a standard 12-lead ECG in patients following COVID-19 infection.
Vektor Medical, Inc. announced the start of its clinical study to evaluate vMap™. Using patients who have previously undergone a clinically-indicated electrophysiology study and successful ablation, the purpose of this study is to clinically validate the use of vMap™ in providing arrhythmia/pacing hotspots for analysis by a physician. vMap™ has been designed as the next generation in arrhythmia mapping. This non-invasive, rapid technology helps unlock the patient&rsqu
