On December 22, Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:ABT) said the US Food and Drug Administration has approved the company's Volt™ PFA System to treat patients with atrial fibrillation, or AFib. The company plans to begin commercial PFA cases in the United States soon and will continue expanding sites across the European Union, following Volt's CE Mark approval earlier this year. AFib affects roughly 12 million people in the US over the age of 65, and that number is expected to double over the next 20 years.
