Sri Sri Holistic Hospitals has introduced India’s first Pulse Field Ablation (PFA) technology integrated with the advanced CARTO 3 System Version 8 and CARTO ELEVATE Module, marking a significant breakthrough in the treatment of complex cardiac arrhythmias and heart rhythm disorders.
The newly launched technology is designed to improve the safety, speed, and precision of minimally invasive heart procedures used to treat conditions such as atrial fibrillation (AF), ventricular tachycardia (VT), atrial flutter, and other complex electrical abnormalities of the heart.
Unlike traditional thermal ablation methods that use heat or extreme cold to destroy problematic cardiac tissue, Pulse Field Ablation works through carefully controlled electrical pulses that selectively target abnormal heart cells while minimizing damage to nearby healthy structures such as nerves, blood vessels, and the esophagus. Cardiology experts globally have described PFA as one of the most important recent advancements in electrophysiology and arrhythmia management.
The hospital stated that the integration of PFA with the CARTO 3 advanced cardiac mapping system allows doctors to create highly detailed 3D electro-anatomical maps of the heart, enabling more accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment planning during procedures. The technology also incorporates intracardiac imaging and echocardiographic guidance for improved procedural visualization.
According to the hospital’s electrophysiology specialists, the new platform can potentially reduce procedure duration, lower complication risks, and support faster patient recovery compared to conventional ablation systems. Some patients may even qualify for same day discharge following treatment depending on their condition and recovery profile.
Healthcare analysts say India’s adoption of next generation electrophysiology technologies reflects the country’s rapidly growing demand for advanced cardiac care solutions. Atrial fibrillation cases are rising steadily due to aging populations, lifestyle related cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, and increasing awareness around preventive cardiac health.
Globally, major medical technology companies are investing heavily in Pulse Field Ablation systems as hospitals shift toward safer and more efficient minimally invasive cardiac procedures. Experts believe India’s entry into this technology space could improve domestic access to advanced arrhythmia treatment while reducing dependence on overseas medical travel for specialized electrophysiology care.
However, specialists also note that wider adoption of advanced cardiac technologies will depend on affordability, trained electrophysiologists, infrastructure availability, and access beyond major metropolitan hospitals. Despite these challenges, the launch is being viewed as a major milestone for India’s evolving cardiac healthcare ecosystem.
