FARAPULSE™ Pulsed Field Ablation System, the world's clinical leader in PFA used in 125,000+ patients, is transforming treatment for atrial fibrillation by:

  • Selectively ablating myocardium to reduce risk of damage to surrounding tissue
  • Delivering durable transmural pulmonary vein (PV) lesions to limit redo procedures for PV triggers
  • Adapting to variable patient PV anatomy for reproducible procedures and limiting left atrium (LA) dwell time
  • Creating workflow efficiencies to simplify the procedure and shorten the learning curve
  • Visualizing workflow with integrated mapping and a magnetically-tracked catheter

Key Resources

Transformative possibilities for AFib treatment

Tissue-selective ablation

Farapulse system overview

FARAPULSE restricts therapy to only the intended target.

  • ADVENT Pivotal Trial: FARAPULSE met all primary endpoints for safety and efficacy1 (posterior probability >0.999)
  • MANIFEST-17K Registry (17,000+ pts): no reported esophageal fistula, permanent phrenic nerve palsy, and pulmonary vein stenosis.2

Optimized for efficacy

Farapulse system overview

FARAPULSE offers a proven dosing strategy that delivers durable lesions.

  • Delivers durable lesions via streamlined workflow using multiple distal shapes in a single catheter
  • Propensity-Matched Study: PV reconnection rate significantly lower for FARAPULSE vs. CBA and RFA.3

Rapid and reproducible

Farapulse system overview

The FARAPULSE workflow is rapid and reproducible, while reducing procedural duration variability.

  • EU-PORIA Multicenter Registry: consistent FARAPULSE procedure times, even among operators with varied experience.4
  • PFA ablation time significantly lower, with an average reduction of 42% vs. thermal ablation.1
 

Mapping experience

FARAPULSE innovation continues with the mapping integration of the FARAVIEW™ Software Module and the FARAWAVE™ NAV Pulsed Field Ablation Catheter.

Together, they allow operators to confirm ablation success while maintaining worfklow simplicity. FARAVIEW is available exclusively on the OPAL HDx™ Mapping System.
