Affera™ mapping and ablation system, which includes the Sphere-9™ all-in-one mapping and therapeutic radiofrequency (RF) and pulsed field (PF) ablation catheter, receives CE Mark approval! https://t.co/tSTODAUD3G
Thrilled the first Affera System case took place at Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf. Congrats to @AndreasMetzner7 & team. This is the first of sites to come in the next few weeks. Excited to make a difference for patients with this novel innovation #MedtronicEmployee#EPeeps
Just published! The Affera™ Mapping and Ablation System 12-month outcomes that led to CE Mark were just published in @JACCJournals. Read it now: https://t.co/KE4bWQGfVc
Thoughts after first cases w Affera: 1) having all in one mapping/ablating globe is super efficient (mapped an LAA AT and two SVC ATs on first case- first burn terminations on all three) 2) mapping definition and annotation algorithm is on the money as evidenced above
I am fortunate to be a site prinicipal investigator for AFFERA's disruptive pulse-field/radiofrequency atrial fibrillation ablation clinical trial. The cardiac electrophysiology community across the world is looking forward to this trial. I had our cent…https://t.co/s1mII9eowa
This is an exciting day for the Affera, Inc. team. Looking forward to partnering with @Medtronic to improve therapies for cardiac arrhythmia patients worldwide.

First patient treated in US IDE SPHERE PerAF at @MountSinaiNYC by Drs. @VivekReddyMD@jskoruth@billwhangep and others. Affera also announces $75M series C with Bain Capital Life Sciences.

Pulse-field ablation in the ventricle: In contrast to biophysics of RFA, lesion repetition of PFA has incremental effect on lesion dimensions, likely via a mechanism of permeability preconditioning. Congrats to @yavin_h https://t.co/PKKBtGZPrI @CirculationEP@ClevelandClinic
Dose dependent reversible electroporation - effect on AV node conduction. Follow up from last years data on egm amplitude - transient AV block after the pulse that reverses in <1-2 minutes
Affera ready to redefine another catheter ablation category. Thank you Drs. Aidietis and Račkauskas at Vilnius University Hospital for hosting us and @EladAnter and @VivekReddyMD for joining us to perform successful FIH procedures last week. Stay tuned…
Another PerAF case with Affera PFA: PVI+PWI+MAL: 1st to last lesion <30min with total procedure time <1Hr including mapping and 20min waiting period (no reconnections). We may soon be ready to re-evaluate ablation strategies to treat different types of AF w/ rapid and durable Tx.
Persistent AF case with Affera: PVI+Mitral Line+PWI+CTI with transpired therapy time of 30 min. Multiple cases, durable lines, consistent results. High-Res mapping and PFA/RFA from the same lattice catheter at a switch of a button. Exciting times to be in EP and Cleveland Clinic
