Catheter Precision (VTAK) Stock News, May-Jul 2025

Catheter Precision (NYSE:VTAK) has announced the formation of a new joint venture called Kardionav to develop advanced AI-powered software for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. The venture combines VTAK's expertise with Chelak iECG to enhance VT treatment outcomes through improved mapping technology.

The ownership structure allocates 56% to VTAK, 33% to Chelak iECG, and 10% to management. Dr. Jie Cheng, founder of Chelak iECG and Clinical Professor at Baylor College of Medicine, will serve as the primary researcher, bringing significant AI and arrhythmia localization expertise to the venture.

The joint venture aims to develop a standalone ventricular mapping system that will integrate vector technology with imaging of conduction channels and velocity calculations. This next-generation technology builds upon VTAK's existing VIVO platform and seeks to address current limitations in VT ablation procedures, including lengthy procedure times and imprecise ablation site targeting.

Catheter Precision (NYSE American: VTAK), a medical device company specializing in electrophysiology products, has issued a statement addressing unusual trading activity in its stock. The company explicitly stated it is unaware of any operational or company-related information that would explain the increased market activity. Management confirmed they are continuing to execute their previously disclosed strategic plans, including actively seeking financing to address their liquidity requirements.

Catheter Precision (VTAK) has announced that its 82% owned subsidiary has acquired key heart failure assets from Cardionomic, Inc. The acquisition includes the CPNS System, an innovative therapy for treating acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). The system uses electrical stimulation via a temporary catheter in the pulmonary artery to target heart failure's root cause by stimulating autonomic cardiac nerves. This technology addresses a significant medical need, as over 1 million Americans are hospitalized annually for ADHF, with patients facing high in-hospital morbidity, frequent rehospitalization, and subsequent death risks. Initial studies of the CPNS System have shown promising results. The acquisition follows a definitive agreement made with a Cardionomic assignor in April.

Catheter Precision (VTAK) presented new clinical data for their VIVO non-invasive mapping system at the 46th Annual Heart Rhythm Association Conference. The system, which identifies ventricular arrhythmia areas pre-procedure, has shown over 95% accuracy and reduces procedure time by nearly 30%. Leading physicians presented data highlighting key benefits: statistically significant improvements in procedural outcomes when used pre-procedurally, ability to identify arrhythmia sources in challenging cases, and high accuracy with successful long-term outcomes in ischemic ventricular tachycardia patients. The data is being prepared for submission to industry journals for detailed publications.
