First-in-Nation: Integrating ViewFlex X SE ICE with VOLT PFA
This week started with a meaningful milestone at St. Bernards Healthcare (Jonesboro, AR) — first-in-nation combining Abbott’s ViewFlex X Sensor Enabled ICE with the VOLT PFA platform.
This builds on our prior experience with:
• FIH clinical trial use of ViewFlex X SE
• Post-FDA VOLT PFA cases as part of the VOLT LMR
What stood out was how well imaging mapping energy delivery functioned as one ecosystem in a zero fluoroscopy / zero contrast workflow .
Key takeaways
🔹 ICE integrated into EnSite X for real-time anatomic confirmation during PFA
🔹 Safe ICE-in-LA workflow and transseptal planning that reduced unnecessary manipulation in small LA anatomy. Integration helped support transseptal decision-making up front—optimizing trajectory and reducing unnecessary catheter manipulation in small LA anatomy.
🔹 Quick LA shell creation to confirm ridge/posterior wall/carina geometry early
🔹 Small atria lesion strategy: integration helped us decide tighter antral lesions vs intentionally addressing a posterior “critical isthmus” when the posterior corridor was inherently narrow
🔹 During VOLT delivery: very low microbubble visualization on ICE and no clinical hemolysis observed
VOLT workflow highlights: single-catheter mapping/pacing/ablation, impedance-based contact visualization, balloon-in-basket (8 splines), selective electrode delivery; PVI ± PVI as clinically indicated (GA used).
Grateful for the St. Bernards EP Lab team and the Abbott clinical support team.

Among historic firsts this election cycle, Nevadans became the first to protect love in our Constitution.
To say that I am PROUD of my State would be an understatement.

Sen. Pedersen's SB 5001 just received final approval in the Senate and is now headed to @GovInslee to be signed into law! 🌱🌱🌱 #waleg #firstinnation #firstinworld #environmentallyfriendly

SB 5001 passes the Senate on a 36-11 vote. It would make WA first in the nation— and probably the world — to allow human remains to be disposed of and reduced to soil through composting. It also allows for alkaline hydrolysis. #waleg
