Abstract
Robotic catheter system are taking a more leading position in clinical electrophysiology and have several advantages over manual catheter ablation. These technologies make it possible to improve the safety and effectiveness of treatment procedures arrhythmias, but the use of robotic technology slows workflow, requires specialized equipment and catheters, and the specific skills of operators. In this review article, we look at the main varieties of robotic catheter systems, their advantages, disadvantages and safety of use in clinical practice.
