Catheter Precision, Inc.  Forms new Joint Venture Called Kardionav to Exploit patented AI Techniques to Create New VT Software platform

New AI techniques to add to VT ablation tools

FORT MILL, S.C., June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Catheter Precision, Inc. (VTAK - NYSE/American), a US based medical device company focused on developing technologically advanced products for the cardiac electrophysiology market today announced that it has formed a joint venture, named Kardionav, to pursue the latest in technology surrounding the area of ablation for ventricular tachycardia.  The venture is a joint development company between VTAK and Chelak iECG, Inc., whereby both companies will contribute intellectual property and know-how.  VTAK will own approximately 56% of the enterprise, Chelak iECG will own 33%, and management will have 10% ownership.

Jie Cheng, PhD, MD, is the president and founder of Chelak iECG, and will contribute to the venture as the primary researcher.  Dr. Cheng commented, “We have some significant research and IP around AI and pinpointing the exact location of ventricular arrhythmias to enhance patient outcomes in ventricular ablation.  Our desire is to bring technology into a standalone Ventricular mapping system, with the goal to shorten treatment procedure times with better outcomes.  VT is not well treated today, and we believe that Kardionav can change that. This joint venture will allow us to combine resources and expedite technological development.”

Dr. Cheng is a practicing cardiac electrophysiologist and engineer.  He holds a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University, and has medical training at Mt. Sinai Medical Center, Case Western Reserve University, University of Chicago, and the University of California at San Francisco.  He currently holds the position of Clinical Professor of Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, and President and Medical Director of Texas Heart Rhythm Center, and is Senior Research Scientist and Director of the Electrophysiology Research Laboratory at the Texas Heart Institute in Houston, Texas.

David Jenkins, CEO of Catheter Precision, commented on the new venture, “We could not be more excited about the opportunity that Kardionav brings to us.  This will be the next generation of our VIVO technology and will combine vector technology with additional inputs for the physician including imaging of channels of conduction and calculation of velocity of conduction.  Today’s ablation techniques in the ventricle leave much to be desired.  Procedures are lengthy, the patients are put in and out of VT for long periods of time, the site of ablation is not well defined, and, as a result, the method of “carpet bombing” without great outcomes, and often, resulting in a decline of ventricular function, while not curing the VT, are all parameters of VT ablation today.  Other companies are developing improved VT specific ablation catheters, but without the precise localization to be provided by Kardionav, the advanced catheters do little to bring about better patient outcomes and growth in this new segment of EP.”
