Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On October 12, 2005, Biosense Webster, Inc., a Johnson & Johnson company, announced that it had received clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for devices that aid electroanatomical mapping. The CARTO™ RMT Navigation System, NAVISTAR® RMT Steerable Tip Diagnostic Catheter, and REFSTAR™ RMT Catheter with the QWIKPATCH® External Reference Patch products were all designed to integrate with the NIOBE® Magnetic Navigation System designed by Stereotaxis, Inc. (Nasdaq: STXS). The clearance of these Biosense Webster products by the FDA provides electrophysiologists additional tools and maneuvering capabilities when using the NIOBE® Magnetic Navigation System to allow doctors to steer a catheter remotely.

 

The above referenced products, none of which are ablation catheters, are the first to be commercialized in the United States pursuant to Stereotaxis' strategic alliance with Biosense.
