Abbott Laboratories has announced a collaboration with AtaCor Medical to develop a next-generation investigational extravascular implantable cardioverter defibrillator (EV-ICD) system. This partnership will pair AtaCor’s investigational parasternal EV-ICD lead (Atala™) with Abbott’s investigational ICD system, aiming to deliver potentially life-saving defibrillation therapy for individuals with life-threatening heart rhythms. AtaCor plans to initiate a pivotal Investigational Device Exemption $(IDE)$ clinical trial in 2026 to evaluate the combined system. The collaboration highlights Abbott’s ongoing commitment to advancing innovative cardiac rhythm management solutions and expanding treatment options for patients with irregular heart rhythms.
