The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded Sigt LLC a $293,880 Project Grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research (CFDA 93.837) program. The purpose of this Phase 1 SBIR grant is to develop a novel "Intraoperative Cardiac Pulsed Field Ablation Lesion Assessment System" (PFA-LAS) that can monitor procedure parameters and confirm durable lesion formation during cardiac pulsed electric field ablation procedures for atrial fibrillation treatment. Sigt LLC's proprietary "High Frequency Dielectric Sensing" technology will be integrated into the ablation catheter to enable real-time assessment of tissue properties and lesion characteristics. This system aims to improve the safety and efficacy of pulsed field ablation by providing intraoperative guidance to effectively deliver contiguous, transmural lesions. The award has an initial period of performance from Sep 1, 2023 to Aug 31, 2024.
