Powering the next generation in bioelectric medicine with Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation technology.

Welcome

Pulse Biosciences pioneers in the research, design and production of our patented Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation™ (nsPFA™) technology for use in high impact areas of healthcare. We are currently focused on applying this technology within cardiology. We believe there may be several applications in cardiology for nsPFA, including as a potential treatment of atrial fibrillation.

Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation (nsPFA) energy is a novel technology that has the potential to not only help patients with atrial fibrillation but also patients across many different therapy areas.

Pulse Biosciences' proprietary Nanosecond Pulsed Field AblationTM (nsPFATM) Technology was recently featured in multiple presentations at the 2023 Heart Rhythm Society Meeting (HRS 2023). These presentations demonstrated preclinical evidence on the use of nsPFA energy for the treatment of heart rhythm disorders. “This data is a validation of the quality of the preclinical work completed with our physician collaborators and our opportunity to advance the treatment of atrial fibrillation. We are excited to continue on the path towards first in-human clinical use," said Kevin Danahy, Chief Executive Officer.

Our Technology

Our proprietary Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation™ (nsPFA™) technology delivers nanosecond pulses of electrical energy to nonthermally clear cells while sparing adjacent noncellular tissue. nsPFA energy is delivered from the powerful and versatile nsPFA™ generator platform. The nsPFA platform was developed to be capable of connecting to multiple types of applicators from superficial to surgical to catheter-based therapies. Our system has already been used to treat over 6,000 patients safely and effectively outside of Cardiology.

These ultrafast electrical energy pulses have pulse durations from billionths up to a millionth of a second. When applied to targeted tissue, nsPFA energy pulses enter cells and alter the function of the internal cellular organelles, including the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. The cascade of intracellular disruption leads to regulated cell death (RCD). RCD is a process exhibited by cells in the human body when they undergo stress and are unable to restore cellular homeostasis.

Pulse Biosciences has brought to market the first commercial product to harness the distinctive advantages of nsPFA technology.

Mechanism of Action

  • Nonthermal modality that delivers nanosecond duration pulses of electrical energy
  • Unlike thermal technologies, nsPFA™ energy directly impacts cellular structures while sparing non cellular tissue
  • nsPFA™ energy pulses initiate nanopores in cellular membranes that allow ions, such as calcium, to move within the cell
  • Triggers a cascade of intracellular disruption that stresses vital cell organelles
  • Breakdown of vital cell organelles leads to regulated cell death (RCD)
