About Volta Medical
Volta Medical is a pioneering health technology company that develops artificial intelligence (AI) software solutions to assist cardiac electrophysiologists in treating complex cardiac arrhythmias, primarily atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial tachycardia. Their core mission is to enhance patient care by providing state-of-the-art, data-driven medical devices trained on extensive databases of procedural data.
The company’s flagship product, VOLTA AF-Xplorer (and its successor, AF-Xplorer II), is an AI-driven decision-support software designed to provide real-time identification and annotation of specific abnormal electrograms, known as spatio-temporal dispersed electrograms, on 3D anatomical and electrical maps of the heart during catheter ablation procedures. This technology aims to improve the precision and consistency of ablations, potentially leading to optimized clinical outcomes for patients and reducing the need for repeat treatments. The VOLTA AF-Xplorer system has received both CE Mark approval in Europe and 510(k) clearance from the U.S. FDA.
Volta Medical’s solutions are engineered for versatility, integrating seamlessly with leading AF mapping and recording systems and compatible with common ablation modalities. Recent clinical trials, such as TAILORED-AF, have demonstrated improved freedom from AF in patients treated with AI-guided ablation compared to conventional anatomical ablation. The company also focuses on R&D and clinical research to further enhance treatment strategies and is expanding its market reach, particularly in the US healthcare sector, through partnerships with leading centers and companies like GE HealthCare.

What Physicians Need to Know
For physicians, Volta Medical's AI solutions offer enhanced precision in identifying arrhythmia drivers, potentially leading to more effective and durable ablation outcomes, especially for challenging persistent AFib cases. The real-time guidance can standardize and optimize ablation strategies, reducing reliance on subjective interpretation and potentially improving procedural efficiency. Consider integrating Volta AF-Xploreru2122 II to augment your existing mapping systems for a data-driven approach to targeting complex arrhythmias and improving patient quality of life. The technology is designed to assist in complex cases, including those with recurrent AF after previous ablations.
Volta Medical's AF-Xploreru2122 II is engineered for versatility and integrates seamlessly with leading AF mapping and recording systems (e.g., CARTO 3, ENSITE X, AFFERA, OPAL HDx) and is compatible with most common ablation modalities, including PFA catheters. They have a strategic partnership with GE HealthCare, allowing for integration with the GE HealthCare CardioLab AltiX AI.i EP recording platform for a unified workspace and enhanced workflow efficiency.
