About

Dr. Ejaz Khan is a pioneering figure in interventional cardiac electrophysiology, with a focused research agenda on robotic-assisted catheter navigation. His key contributions center on the development and clinical validation of remote catheter systems, most notably through his leadership in the Amigo™ mapping trial. This landmark study, which has garnered 156 citations, provided the first clinical evidence for the safety and efficacy of a novel robotic remote catheter system, demonstrating its ability to precisely map and ablate arrhythmia substrates while replacing traditional hand maneuvering. Dr. Khan’s work has been instrumental in advancing the field, as he has systematically evaluated the four commercially available robotic platforms, including the Niobe magnetic navigation system and the Sensei system, comparing their utility in complex arrhythmia management. His 2014 review on robotics in invasive cardiac electrophysiology (13 citations) serves as a foundational resource for researchers and clinicians alike, synthesizing the technological evolution from manual to machine-steered catheters. Through these contributions, Dr. Khan has not only expanded the procedural toolkit for electrophysiologists but also improved patient outcomes by enhancing precision and reducing radiation exposure. His research continues to shape the future of minimally invasive cardiac care.
