Clarivate Reveals Stronger Outlook for Pulsed-field Ablation Market and Potential for Device to Revolutionize Treatment Paradigm

MedTech Insights report series analyzes the impact of recent breakthroughs in pulsed-field ablation, signaling its promising future in the electrophysiology mapping and ablation device market

LONDON, Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarivate Plc (NYSE:CLVT), a global leader in connecting people and organizations to intelligence they can trust to transform their world, today announced the launch of a new special report series,  Electrophysiology Mapping and Ablation Devices Market Insights. The Clarivate MedTech Insights reports reveal new forecast predictions for the ablation catheter market in four geographies: the US, Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific. Findings show pulsed-field ablation (PFA) is poised to revolutionize the treatment paradigm.

PFA has emerged as a breakthrough technology for the treatment of atrial fibrillation, attracting significant investment from several companies dedicated to its development. This innovative technique has produced favorable clinical outcomes compared to existing technologies and has the potential to see immediate widespread adoption following FDA approval. While both Boston Scientific and Medtronic have IDE trials for their PFA devices, Medtronic's PulseSelect PFA system received FDA approval on December 13, 2023 and Boston Scientific's FARAPULSE is expected to closely follow. There has already been a swift adoption of PFA, spurred by the approval of FARAPULSE in Europe in 2021 and its subsequent approval in Australia in 2023.

Andrew Lee, Vice President Medtech, Life Sciences and Healthcare, Clarivate said: "As the EP mapping and ablation devices market evolves with the transformative potential of PFA, medical device companies should understand and analyze the impact of the recent developments and updates in the field to get a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the evolving landscape. Clarivate experts underscored the potential of PFA and updated our forecast analysis for the EP mapping and ablation device market, equipping our customers with the insight and foresight needed to build informed go-to-market decisions, create innovative medical devices, deliver them to patients faster and create a healthier tomorrow.''
