CHALLENGE

"Procedural complications and safety concerns limit adoption"

The key challenge is procedural safety and complication rates. In the U.S., Johnson & Johnson halted U.S. sales of Varipulse after 8 stroke events and 2 transient ischemic attacks reported among 130 patients, raising safety flag in early deployment. Boston Scientific reported over 200,000 uses of Farapulse with very low adverse events, but competitor safety concerns persist. Procedural risk of bleeding or esophageal injury occurs in 1.5 % of RF ablations. In electrophysiology ablation, complications like vascular puncture occur in < 2 % of cases. Hospitals report adverse event rates under 1 %, but any uptick of even 0.1 % leads to procedure hesitation. These safety challenges limit more rapid adoption in sensitive populations, especially elderly groups where procedural risk increases by 5‑10 %.
