Boston Scientific Corporation (NYSE: BSX), Natick, Mass., has announced Health Canada approval of the Blazer Open-Irrigated Catheter, the company's latest radiofrequency ablation (RFA) catheter designed to treat a variety of arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, ventricular tachycardia and other supraventricular tachycardias.
