Session 3.9 - Case & Discussion: Redefine Simple, Redefine Success: Streamlining my Workflow with a Balloon-in-Basket PFA Catheter
In this session chaired by Devi Nair (Jonesboro, US), Philipp Sommer (Heart and Diabetes Center North Rhine-Westphalia, Bad Oeynhausen, DE) presents a pulsed field ablation case using the Volt balloon-in-basket catheter. Philipp Sommer outlines a streamlined workflow typical of his center in Germany, utilizing pre-procedural CT imaging, deep sedation with propofol managed by nurses, and a fluoroscopy-guided transseptal puncture without intracardiac echo. Panelists Ammar Killu (Rochester, US) and Pasquale Santangeli (Cleveland, US) discuss the catheter’s electrode deselection capabilities to optimize contact, the maneuverability of the sheath, and how investigational device exemption (IDE) trial results may translate to real-world practice.
