About Us

nContact: a medical device company, founded in 2005 and  located in Morrisville, NC. Our mission is to develop devices for the endoscopic treatment of arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (AF).

 

Introducing an exciting, revolutionary technology for cardiac coagulation.

 

Simply stated, VisiTrax® applies radiofrequency (RF) energy to the outer surface of the heart to create lesions. Several things make us unique in how we do this:

 
  • Our device integrates suction, perfusion, and RF energy to ensure complete lesions
  • Lesions are visible and can therefore be connected
  • Lesions are created while the heart is beating
  • Our technology enables access and visibility to the back of the heart and can be used during endoscopic applications through minimally invasive access
