Electrophysiology

Our focus

A broad range of technologies for diagnosing and treating heart rhythm disorders.

Delivering meaningful innovation

Our EP portfolio is centered on delivering meaningful innovation for diagnosing and treating heart rhythm disorders, improving safety for patients, and improving efficiency for physicians.

The future of ablation.

Advancements in treating atrial arrhythmias have given physicians more therapeutic options. We pioneered the FARAPULSE™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System –  a novel, non-thermal method for cardiac ablation, which uses a process called irreversible electroporation designed to precisely and efficiently ablate cardiac tissue, while preserving adjacent tissue. The POLARx™ Cryoablation System incorporates physician-driven design changes to provide increased procedural predictability in the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

Access better outcomes. 

Our transseptal crossing platforms facilitate predictable and safe left heart access by using radiofrequency (RF) energy – a method shown to increase efficiency and improve the safety and efficacy of transseptal puncture during left heart procedures. The VersaCross™ RF Transseptal Solution streamlines these crossing procedures and therapy delivery by reducing wire and sheath exchanges, while the VersaCross Connect™ Platform enables an integrated, zero-exchange left heart access workflow compatible with FARADRIVE™, POLARSHEATH™ and WATCHMAN™ sheaths, which may help mitigate risks during procedures.

Redefining heart care.

We’re dedicated to helping patients live longer, healthier lives with the Boston Scientific EP Mapping and Navigation System, which provides physicians the ability to diagnose arrhythmias with greater efficiency, deliver targeted therapy and confidently achieve procedural endpoints in complex substrates.

≈60%

We estimate that 60% of all atrial fibrillation ablation procedures are expected to use pulsed field ablation by 2028.3

≈850K

An estimated 850K electrophysiology ablation procedures were performed in the U.S. in 2023.3
