Finally published today in
#CirculationAE
after 4 years of collaborative work: Multicenter, international assessment of phrenic nerve injury after
#Cryoballoon
based PVI: The
#YETI
registry.
Impressive usage of
#cartoprime
parallel mapping: Simultaneous mapping of frequent AES beats (left) and SR (right). Earliest activation ant.-lat. RA close to sinusnode and phrenic nerve. Ablated with 3 RF applications and immediate effect.

Todays case of VT ablation in a patient with severe ischemic heart disease and VT storm utilizing
#CartoPrime
and
#QDot
.
Please see the reverse-s-curve technique to achieve stable position at LV summit visualized by the bulls eye tool.

Electrophysiology = Livestyle medicine? 🧐
Incessant VF with >35 shocks despite amiodarone and deep sedation early after anterior STEMI (<3 weeks) 😱
‼️Treatment by VF-ablation procedure‼️
What’s your approach?

Published today in Circulation: Hamburg data of left atrial appendage isolation in addition to PVI for PersAF: It seems to be effective but be aware of its consequences concerning LAA thrombus (23.2%) and embolism (14.7%).
A must read in your next

Great anatomical setup! However, there might be variations like in this case of LCC-PVC and atypical origin of the left main from very low part of the LCC cusp. So, strongly suggest to perform angiography via the ablation catheter before ablation.
I got many questions for lesion depth of the very-close protocol (90W/4s only, Fast and Furious PVI study). This paper analysed it in an animal model: Deeper lesions for overlapping / double applications:

Teaching and education is part of our daily work as physicians, scientists and teachers in EP: It’s always a great pleasure to see a young EP-fellow performing his firs procedure!
Congratulations to
