EU Wants More In U.S. Trade Deal Than U.K. Or China Got
The European Union wants a trade deal with the U.S. that sees a larger reduction in tariffs than negotiations with the U.K. and China have so far yielded, officials from the bloc said Thursday. President Trump has imposed a series of tariffs that affect Europe's makers of automobiles, steel and aluminum. On April 2, he announced a sharp rise in tariffs on all imports from Europe, but a week later reduced the increase to 10% for 90 days to allow for negotiations. Bags of Cash From Drug Cartels Flood Teller Windows at U.S. Banks Warren Buffett Reveals He Stepped Down After Finally Feeling His Age Dick's Sporting Goods to Buy Foot Locker for $2.4 Billion Boeing, GE Aerospace Get Qatar Airways Order After Saudi AI Tech Deals 401(k) Giant to Allow Private Markets Investments in Its Retirement Portfolios Last week, the U.S. and the U.K. announced an agreement that left 10% 'baseline' tariffs in place on a wide range of British exports to the world's largest economy. In an agreement announced Monday, the U.S. and China agreed to dial back some recent tariff hikes for 90 days, but left duties above the levels that prevailed before Trump took office. 'I don't think that's the level of ambition Europe would be happy with,' said Michal Baranowski, Poland's deputy economy minister, who is chairing a meeting of EU trade officials in Brussels. Sweden's trade minister said the EU should retaliate with higher tariffs on imports from the U.S. if a 10% baseline tariff were to be the final offer from the Trump administration. 'It's far away from good for trade,' said Benjamin Dousa. 'If that's what's waiting for Europe, the U.S. can expect countermeasures from our side.' The Polish official noted that the EU is on day 37 of the 90-day pause, and 'has time' to secure the broad deal that it seeks. 'We don't need a quick deal, we need a good deal,' Baranowski said. 'So does America. We have time.' Officials said negotiations between the European Union and the U.S. are making progress. 'We are seeing some elements of optimism because we are seeing elements of de-escalation on the U.S. side,' said Baranowski. 'That's a good sign that negotiations with the EU are speeding up.' Also speaking to reporters ahead of the meeting, EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic said he had a 'constructive call' with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Wednesday. 'Our aim is to resolve the immediate challenges but also to lay the groundwork for deeper cooperation,' Sefcovic said. But there is the potential for fresh tension. The U.S. has initiated an investigation of the trade in pharmaceuticals under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, which allows the president to impose tariffs on goods deemed essential for national security. Simon Harris, deputy prime minister of Ireland, said higher tariffs would harm both the U.S. and the EU. A number of large U.S. pharmaceutical companies have big factories in Ireland that make drugs which are shipped back home. 'The idea that Ireland or the EU poses any sort of security threat to the U.S. is absurd,' Harris said.

Johnson & Johnson MedTech Presents 3-Month Data from Omny-IRE Clinical Trial at 2025 Heart Rhythm Society Annual Meeting
Omny-IRE data demonstrated the investigational OMNYPULSE™ Platform achieved 100% acute success and 84.5% pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) durability at three months, with promising safety outcomes1 Additional data presented from VARIPURE registry2 and Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF Catheter3 pre-clinical study underscore safety and real-world efficiency across Johnson & Johnson MedTech's expanding pulsed field ablation portfolio IRVINE, Calif., April 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson MedTech, a global leader in cardiac arrhythmia treatment, today announced positive, initial 3-month results from the Omny-IRE study, evaluating the investigational OMNYPULSE™ Platform in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). The data, unveiled as a late breaking presentation at the 2025 Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) annual meeting, demonstrated the potential for both high acute effectivenessi and a promising safety profile: 100% acute PVI with durable isolation in 84.5% of pulmonary veins at 3-month remapping and a 3.0% primary adverse event rate, with only 0.7% being potentially catheter related.1 The data has been simultaneously published in JACC Clin Electrophysiology. Omny-IRE is a 12-month prospective, multi-center, non-randomized clinical trial that evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the OMNYPULSE™ Platform for the mapping and treatment of symptomatic PAF during standard ablation The OMNYPULSE™ Platform consists of the OMNYPULSE™ Catheter, a novel focal pulsed field ablation (PFA) catheter, and the TRUPULSE™ Generator, and is fully integrated with the CARTO™ 3 System. The OMNYPULSE™ Catheter is the first large-tip, 12 mm focal catheter with contact force sensing and a TRUEref™ reference electrode to reduce the impact of far-field unipolar signals. The TRUPULSE™ Generator provides a bipolar, biphasic pulse application to the catheter's twelve electrodes. With the CARTO™ 3 System software used in the study, clinicians were able to obtain a Pulsed Field (PF) Index value for each ablation, which is a calculation using the real-time contact force feedback combined with the number of pulsed field applications.5 As an integrated platform, OMNYPULSE™ brings together mapping precision, energy delivery, and real-time feedback into a single ecosystem—streamlining workflows and helping electrophysiologists deliver more consistent outcomes.1 "The 3-month data provide encouraging early evidence of the OMNYPULSE™ Platform," said Mattias Duytschaever M.D., Ph.D., Department of Cardiology, Electrophysiology Section, AZ Sint-Jan Hospital, Brugge, "What's most compelling is the combination of 100% acute and strong remap success1 with a low rate of safety events. These results reinforce the potential of OMNYPULSE and its integration with the CARTO™ 3 System to deliver reproducible, durable outcomes for patients with paroxysmal AFib." In addition, data from the VARIPURE study are being shared at the HRS Annual Meeting, evaluating the real-world safety and operator learning curve associated with the use of the VARIPULSE™ Platform PVI procedures for atrial fibrillation. Conducted across 13 European sites, the prospective, post-market study included 247 patients and 40 operators with varying levels of experience, including first-time users. Notably, no serious adverse events were reported, and no complications were linked to the platform, including zero neurovascular events or coronary spasms. Among a subset of 115 patients treated by operators performing their first 10 VARIPULSE™ cases, results showed no measurable learning curve beyond a modest reduction in idle time between ablations, underscoring the efficiency and ease of adopting this innovative technology.2 VARIPURE is an ongoing registry, with over 600 patients enrolled to date. "The VARIPULSE™ Platform has both a strong safety profile and is highly accessible to new users, enabling safe and consistent outcomes from the very first case. As adoption of PFA expands, I believe VARIPULSE™ can play a key role in broadening access to safe and streamlined ablation procedures," said Francis Bessière M.D., Ph.D., Cardiac Electrophysiology Department, Hôpital Cardiologique Louis Pradel, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Additional data presented at HRS by Dr. Hiroshi Nakagawa include new preclinical validation of a PF Index from the Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF Catheter, leveraging data from lesions created in a swine beating heart model. The analysis confirmed that lesion depth, which is crucial for effective treatment, correlates strongly with the number of PFA pulses and contact force using a logarithmic PF Index—accurately predicting lesion depth within ±1 mm in 92% of cases and ±1.5 mm in all cases. These findings reinforce the reliability of the pulse dosing protocol and underline the PF Index's value as a practical tool for guiding ablation. The index is specifically optimized to support durable lesion formation, offering physicians confidence in its outputs and enabling them to make informed, real-time decisions with a high degree of procedural predictability and clinical precision.3 These multiplatform findings advance the clinical and technical validation of Johnson & Johnson MedTech's PFA portfolio across focal, regional and dual energy catheter designs—each leveraging CARTO™ 3 System integration and real-time lesion feedback. These latest data are part of Johnson & Johnson MedTech's commitment to advancing understanding of PFA, including the recently announced 12-month results from the SmartfIRE clinical trial presented in March 2025. "Our PFA portfolio is built around what matters most to physicians—durability, control, safety and efficiency," said Jennifer Currin, Ph.D., Vice President, Scientific Affairs, Johnson & Johnson MedTech. "The Omny-IRE, VARIPURE, and Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF Catheter data demonstrate our commitment to delivering safe, effective, and reliable PFA tools." Additional information on Johnson & Johnson's data presented at HRS can be found here. About The OMNYPULSE™ Platform The investigational OMNYPULSE™ Platform uses pulsed electrical field energy to produce targeted intracardiac lesions for the treatment of atrial fibrillation. The platform includes the TRUPULSE™ multichannel generator and multi-electrode OMNYPULSE™ Catheter used in conjunction with the CARTO™ 3 System with the VISITAG SURPOINT™ Module PF Index to provide electroanatomical maps, contact force sensing, PF Index values and catheter localization information for ablations for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The OMNYPULSE™ Platform is not currently approved in any region of the world. About The Omny-IRE Study Omny-IRE is a pivotal, prospective, multi-center, non-randomized study in Europe and Canada to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Johnson & Johnson MedTech's OMNYPULSE™ Platform, the principal components of which are the OMNYPULSE™ Catheter and the TRUPULSE™ Generator. The study is evaluating the system for the treatment of symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation during standard electrophysiology mapping and ablation procedures while also evaluating the incidence of primary adverse events within seven days post-procedure. About the VARIPULSE™ PlatformThe VARIPULSE™ Platform consists of the VARIPULSE™ Catheter, TRUPULSE™ Generator, and CARTO™ 3 Mapping System VARIPULSE™ Software. The VARIPULSE Catheter is a variable-loop circular catheter (VLCC) used for pulsed field ablation (PFA) in atrial fibrillation treatment, particularly for pulmonary vein isolation, and allows for adjustment of the loop size to conform to different patient anatomies. About the Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF CatheterThe Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF Platform consists of the Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF Catheter – an irrigated, contact-force sensing catheter – and the TRUPULSE™ Generator, providing both RF and PF energy to the catheter through the toggling of the two energy sources on the generator monitor.6 The catheter and the generator are fully integrated with the CARTO™ 3 System, enabling advanced 3D mapping visualization with integrated ultrasound during ablation procedures.v The Dual Energy THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH™ SF Catheter is the first dual energy PFA / RF ablation catheter integrated with a PF and RF tag index.
