Medtronic plc, a global leader in healthcare technology, recently announced positive clinical trial safety and efficacy results for Sphere-360™, an investigational single-shot mapping and ablation catheter using pulsed field (PF) energy, for treatment of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib). Interim findings from the first-in-human Sphere-360 study were presented as a late-breaking clinical trial at the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) 2024 Annual Meeting.
The Sphere-360 catheter was developed with the goal to simplify the atrial fibrillation procedure while enhancing efficiency and providing high durability of lesions. Its unique design includes a large, tissue-conformable lattice tip for efficient energy delivery, with no need to rotate the catheter multiple times in one location as the entire lattice tip delivers PF energy. Furthermore, the catheter is fully integrated with the Affera™ Mapping and Ablation System for complete visualization inside the heart and electroanatomical mapping, making it a true all-in-one single-shot catheter for mapping, ablation, and validation.
HealthTech Insights: Medscape and HIMSS Release 2024 Report on AI Adoption in Healthcare
The Sphere-360 study, a prospective, single arm, multi-center trial performed in three European centers with a total of 85 patients, demonstrated 81.8% freedom from atrial arrhythmias after one year of follow up, and 100% freedom in the sub-group treated with the optimized and most recent pulse configuration. The treatment time, or first to last PF application, was 10 minutes on average.
