Abstract
Bring readers up to date on the rationale for, current state of, and promising innovations in remote and robotic technology in electrophysiology. There is a growing peer-reviewed literature regarding existing nontraditional technology for mapping and ablation. There also is accelerated innovation under early evaluation that promises significant impact. The development and adoption of remote technologies in electrophysiology has faced considerable challenges yet holds tremendous promise for our patients. First principles must include benefit for patients in both safety and effectiveness, optimization of the process for providers, and sound economic and clinical justification for integration into healthcare systems. The limitations of traditional methods and tools that dominate current practice are discussed as a rationale for considering remote robotic systems. The growing library of published outcomes as well as the emergence of promising new technology merits fresh consideration.
