Volta Medical announces the widening of the label for Volta AF-Xplorer in the United States.

The **Volta AF-Xplorer**, a groundbreaking health technology system developed by Volta Medical, is set to revolutionise the treatment of complex atrial fibrillation (AF) in underserved patients, following promising results from a recent clinical trial.

The system, designed to provide real-time insights for electrophysiologists during catheter ablation procedures, has been making waves in the medical community due to its AI-driven capabilities. Recently, updates to its US labelling include results from the **TAILORED-AF trial**, which demonstrate improved long-term outcomes compared to standard pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) treatments.

The TAILORED-AF trial, a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled study, compared standard-of-care to the Volta AF-Xplorer AI-guided tailored ablation. In the mITT population, an impressive 88% of patients treated with the AI-guided Volta AF-Xplorer ablation were AF-free at 12 months, compared to just 70% of patients treated with standard PVI[1]. These results, published in Nature Medicine earlier this year, mark a significant step forward in the treatment of persistent AF.

The Volta AF-Xplorer offers several key features and benefits. Its AI-driven insights deliver real-time data, enabling more tailored and effective ablation procedures. Moreover, it is the first system to provide level-one evidence of improved efficacy for persistent AF patients[1].

As the Volta AF-Xplorer continues to make strides in the field, further studies will focus on its long-term efficacy, cost-effectiveness, and direct comparisons with other AI-assisted systems. Potential comparative studies could involve the **EFAI Cardiosuite** and the **CorVista System**, both AI-based cardiovascular systems that offer insights into how AI-driven diagnostics compare to AI-assisted ablation techniques.

The Volta AF-Xplorer represents a significant advancement in AI-guided ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation. Its potential impact on the treatment of this debilitating disease, which affects over one-third of all AF patients, is substantial. As research continues, we can look forward to a better understanding of the Volta AF-Xplorer's long-term benefits, cost implications, and comparative effectiveness against other emerging AI-driven systems in the field.
