Transforming Cardiac Ablation with Pulsed-Field Ablation
In cardiovascular surgeries, the latest pulsed field ablation (PFA) technique, compared to traditional radiofrequency ablation, employs multiple short-duration, high-voltage electrical pulses for energy release. This approach offers enhanced precision without harming surrounding tissues and significantly reduces surgical time to just one hour.
To cater to the demands of PFA equipment, connection systems must deliver high power while ensuring safety. Nextron offers a customizable high-voltage connection solution, compliant with the IEC 60664-4 standard, ranging from 2000-5000VDC. This reliable solution has been adopted by numerous PFA equipment manufacturers.
PFA's Expansion in Electrophysiology
Initially pioneered in oncology, PFA's adaptation for cardiac applications highlights its versatility and potential. Supported by recent findings from the Heart Rhythm Society meeting and reinforced by promising clinical trial results, PFA's efficacy matches current ablation techniques while its superior safety, particularly in preventing tissue burns, positions PFA as the anticipated new standard in ablation procedures.
High Current: The Driving Force Behind PFA
PFA relies on precise electrical fields, with robust current connectivity playing a vital role. This substantial current ensures effective ablation, reducing the risks commonly associated with thermal methods. Beyond safety, PFA's speed and precision enhance patient outcomes, evident in its remarkably low adverse event rate and shortened procedure times.
To guarantee this precision and efficiency, Nextron's advanced connector technology is ideally suited to meet the instantaneous high-current demands of PFA.
