    Abstract Background The entrainment response, defined as the difference between the postpacing interval and the tachycardia cycle length (TCL) recorded from a mapping catheter, allows to track down…

    • In the #EPlab w/ #JACCCEP: If PPI at sites remote from the pacing site (PPIR) > TCL, then both pacing & recording sites are outside the tachycardia circuit. PPIR–TCL > 20 ms has an excellent PPV for identifying out of circuit sites. https://t.co/0CleUfgXXE #epAblation #EPeeps https://t.co/FKRD7a9Mfm

    This trial included young, healthy patients with highly symptomatic AFib. They were randomized between cryoablation or anti-arrhythmic drugs and followed out to three years. The study looked to answer the question if younger patients should be treated with catheter ablation as a frontline therapy, or if drug therapy was a better option. The study looked at patient reported outcomes such as…

    CT has been used for planning and procedural guidance in pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for about 20 years. It shows the anatomy to the electrophysiologist. The EPs also can load the imaging into their EP mapping system to use as an anatomic shell to overlay electromapping points to see where electrical conduction issues are occurring in the heart muscle.  “It also shows them the location of the…

    The LAA has been implicated as the primary location where clots form inside the heart during AFib episodes, which can then break loose and travel up to the brain and cause a stroke. Anticoagulation drugs are usually prescribed to prevent clot formation in these patients, but the medication also increases the risk of bleeding in these patients. The risk can rise as patients age and if they already…

    Advances in EP ablation and mapping systems have greatly improved outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AFib) ablation therapy. In 2016, about a third of patients who underwent ablation for AFib needed to come back for repeat ablations because of incomplete ablations allowing arrhythmia electrical signals to still get through. However, in just a few years, that number has dropped significantly thanks…

    “This is incredibly significant as nearly 80% of people who receive a pacemaker need a dual-chamber option to pace both chambers on the right side of the heart,“ explained Electrophysiologist Mark Mascarenhas, MD, Hackensack Meridian Jersey Shore University Medical Center, in a statement from the hospital. “While leadless pacemakers work like traditional pacemakers to regulate heart rate, they…
