Unlike RF catheters that rely on heat and carry a risk of steam pops, the FARAPOINT™ PFA Catheter is purpose-built for pulsed field ablation with a non-thermal mechanism of action designed to avoid thermal tissue injury.

When PVI durability matters, catheter design matters.
In separate pivotal IDE studies, PVI durability among redo procedures in persistent AF patients at 12 months was reported.

Efficacy and Safety of Combined Catheter Ablation and Left Atrial Appendage Closure in Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis The combination of catheter ablation (CA) and left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). This systematic review an...

Combining Catheter Ablation (CA) with Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC) saves a procedure. But does it compromise safety?

Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Left Atrial Appendage Closure and Direct Oral Anticoagulants for Atrial Fibrillation: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Control Trials and Observational Studies The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). This meta-analysi...

DOACs are the standard for stroke prevention in AFib, but they carry long-term bleeding risks.

Is mechanical closure just a "backup" for those who can't take blood thinners, or does it offer superior survival benefits?
