The collaboration, according to a written statement issued by the company, aims to address challenges in capturing and analyzing cardiac signals to help physicians enhance patient outcomes for atrial fibrillation procedures. Our mission to combat complex heart rhythm diseases relies on optimizing interoperability.

Atrial fibrillation often shortened to AFib is an irregular and often rapid heart rhythm that can lead to serious health complications. 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.

Outcomes of ablation with the FARAPULSE PFA System – a nonthermal treatment in which electric fields selectively ablate heart tissue – will be compared to outcomes following use of anti-arrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy, which is commonly prescribed for patients living with persistent AF. Circulation.
