In adults with scar-related ventricular tachycardia, a strategy of ventricular tachycardia ablation plus implantation of a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator led to better outcomes than use of a transvenous ICD, data show. For the VTabl-SICD study, presented at Heart Rhythm 2023, researchers analyzed 32 patients with scar-related sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) or

Statin therapy may improve risk for stroke or transient ischemic attack among patients with atrial fibrillation compared with nonuse, regardless of concomitant anticoagulant use, a speaker reported.In addition, longer-duration statin use may further lower risk for stroke/TIA among patients with AF, according to data presented at the Annual Congress of the European Heart Rhythm Association.

Mashup Score: 0Pulsed field ablation technique safe as first-time treatment for atrial fibrillation - 1 year(s) ago
In a real-world population, pulsed field ablation using a novel catheter was safe for most patients with atrial fibrillation in routine practice, with 78% free from AF at 1 year, registry data show. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a novel AF ablation modality that has demonstrated preferential tissue ablation with no esophageal damage in early clinical trials, Vivek Y. Reddy, MD, director of
