Endocardial pulsed field ablation of an inaccessible epicardial LV summit PVC 81-yo post-CABG patient → RF failed, no veins for alcohol, epicardial access impossible Focal-bipolar PFA from inside the LV → instant PVC termination + full transmural scar on MRI + 100% PVC-free

❓What is a major complication due to ablation? Proposal to better quantify complications in (RC)trials...! Kudos Stefano and EHRA SIC! @bordistef @ChristianHeeger @joselmerino @EHRAPresident @HaranBurri @BorianiGiuseppe @SergeBoveda @drjohnm

Have you ever tackled a tough RVOT PVC case with an abrupt precordial transition zone in V4? Focal-bipolar pulsed field ablation (PFA) can work in the infundibular zone of the anteromedial RVOT. Anatomical image courtesy Prof. Kalyanam Shivkumar (Amara-Yad Project).

Thousands of words on why EP docs are underpaid https://t.co/pbzborekMJ 👆I love EP. I’ve never once felt underpaid. Least persuasive of their arguments is the complexity of our procedures. :) Maybe next time, resist the urge to post you did AF ablation in 12 minutes and

Agree this is a new finding. If you have “successful” AF ablation the CHADSVASC score likely does not apply. Stroke risk is VERY low. ARTESIA and NOAH bolster this conclusion. We need new guidelines Stop overuse of anticoagulation and LAAC
Both #OCEAN and #OPTION show strong evidence supporting the role of #afib #ablation in lowering the risk of stroke in #afib! Agree with “most important finding” statement by @kaulcsmc ! @atulverma_md @omwazni @drjohnm @DrRoderickTung @PrashSanders

John, by saying that he "lost on 5 continents LAAO debate" is just bantering. He won against Prof Horst Sievert at ESC 2017 in Barcelona. Vs @VivekReddyMD at HRS 2022: draw more or less (and no one else wanted to give pro-LAAO lecture against @drjohnm at that time). Respect to
@drjohnm And yet I predict you will continue to lose debates on any continent with stable human populations.

Bad news for enthusiasts of left atrial appendage closure from #AHA25. CLOSURE-AF is not yet published, but reports from New Orleans indicate inferiority compared with best medical care (the trial was designed for non-inferiority, making this the most unexpected and unfavorable

The best treatment for afib remains elusive. Congratulations to the authors on a great study free of biases and fanfare.

My column on CLOSURE AF coming today. In the meantime probably worth 30 seconds of your time to watch this video. https://t.co/Ob1YAooIxt And you wonder why we have distorted Bayesian priors regarding LAAC #AHA25

I have first hand knowledge that patients in the US are offered LAAC as an alternative to oral AC. For things as mundane as bruising, the potential of a fall and ...gulp...cost of DOAC. CLOSURE AF says this is wrong. It's always been wrong, but now we know. #AHA25

Happy to share a new EHRA survey that I've worked on for the past months. Curious how physicians decide on primary prevention ICD implantation in nonischemic HFrEF? Find out now in Europace! https://t.co/tmV9ijMWwU

@GAcostamd @williamkchan @_diananguyenn @Ghassanj89 @umjeetjolly @nicolecampbe11 This tool was NOT designed to navigate the delicate anatomy of the MV apparatus. The risk of structural injury far outweighs any perceived procedural advantage. Precision and respect for structure must always come before innovation. ❤️⚙️ ⚠️
