Field Medical Announces First-in-Human Trials for Groundbreaking FieldForce™ Ventricular Pulsed Field Ablation Technology
CARDIFF-BY-THE-SEA, Calif., May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Field Medical,™ Inc., a pioneer in pulsed field cardiac catheter ablation technology, today announced the initiation of its first-in-human study for the FieldForce™ Ablation System at Na Homolce Hospital in Prague, Czech Republic. The Ventricular Catheter Ablation Study, VCAS, will enroll up to 60 patients at up to 5 sites world-wide. The VCAS investigational study is a critical step towards demonstrating safety and performance of the FieldForce™ Ablation System, developed specifically to address the limitations of existing pulsed field ablation (PFA) and radiofrequency (RF) ablation systems, including a more time efficient treatment protocol for the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias. Preliminary results will be presented on May 16, 2024, at the Heart Rhythm Scientific Sessions in Boston, Mass.
- First and only contact force pulsed field ablation (PFA) system designed to transform treatment for millions with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.
