Based on long-term results, “the effectiveness of that nanosecond pulse electric field begins to look as if it is a step function ahead of first generation PFA,” Pulse Biosciences CEO Paul LaViolette says, referring to the next stage of pulsed-field ablation innovation. In this Vanguards of Healthcare episode, LaViolette sits down with BI analyst Matt Henriksson for an in-depth interview about the potential benefits of nanosecond ablation technology to treat atrial fibrillation, which combines an ultrashort pulse duration with a high amplitude of voltage. LaViolette also discusses the commercial strategy behind the launch of its NANOPULSE-AF IDE pivotal study, following promising first-in-human trial results.
