Overview
We invite you to join the first session of #VoltPFA Webinar Series alongside Prof Lucas Boersma (St. Antonius Hospital, NL) Prof Philipp Sommer (Heart and Diabetes Centre, DE), Prof Roland Tilz (University Heart Center Lübeck, DE), Prof Helmut Pürerfellner (Elisabethinen Hospital, AT), and Prof Arian Sultan (St. Georg Heart Center Hamburg, DE). This webinar series is intended to mark educational initiatives focused on integrating clinical relevance and operational efficiency pertaining to the Volt™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) system.
In the first webinar, the highlighted faculty will present key 12-month data regarding the effectiveness, safety, haemolysis, and sedation levels. This will be followed by a review of advanced practical ablation techniques using the Volt system such as one catheter ‘map on the fly’ workflows and high-density posterior wall isolation.
Volt is aimed at electrophysiologists and ablation teams. Therefore, this session will blend clinical data with early user observations incorporating design and workflow optimisation strategies, thus providing participants an all-encompassing explanation of the Volt system’s contribution to redefining ease and efficacy in atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation as well as primary simplification in control.
This session will be concluded by faculty sharing their experiences in the panel discussion. Seasoned participants will analyse the pertinent procedural questions that influence adoption and optimisation of procedural performance.
