Outcomes of ablation with the FARAPULSE PFA System – a nonthermal treatment in which electric fields selectively ablateheart tissue – will be compared to outcomes following use of anti-arrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy, which is commonly prescribed for patients living with persistent AF. The company now anticipates U.S.
AFib occurs when the electrical signals in the upper chambers of your heart (the atria) become chaotic, causing the chambers to quiver instead of beating effectively. In some cases, AFib can also increase the risk of stroke, bloodclots and heartfailure. How Do You Know If You Have AFib?
If untreated, AFib can lead to or exacerbate heartfailure, and it significantly increases a person’s risk of stroke. Catheter ablation was given the highest Class 1 treatment recommendation for appropriately selected patients, including those with heartfailure with reduced ejection fraction.
An international consensus statement on how to treat atrial fibrillation with catheter or surgical ablation has been published in EP Europace, a journal of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), and was recently presented at EHRA 2024, a scientific congress held April 7-9 in Berlin, Germany.

The combined solutions are expected to enhance performance and streamline workflows for electrophysiologists during catheter ablation procedures to treat atrial fibrillation , AFib. Our mission to combat complex heart rhythm diseases relies on optimizing interoperability. The company has obtained U.S.
