Permanent damage to implantable cardioverter-defibrillators during left-sided septal ventricular tachycardia ablation using a lattice-tip catheter: a case series #OpenAccess @SCYap77 heartrhythmjournal.com/article/S1547-…

Ventricular Fibrillation Triggered by Cavotricuspid Isthmus Radiofrequency Ablation with a Dual-Energy Lattice-Tip Catheter in a Patient with an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator @SCYap77 heartrhythmcasereports.com/article/S2214-…

@Dominik_Linz @PrashSanders @Drdevignair @Dr_VarunMalik @hrs_journal @StBernards @KirollosGabrah @bkdoty @VivekReddyMD We also had 1 case of ICD malfunction after monopolar PFA with a lattice-tip catheter during VT ablation (close to septum). We had to replace the ICD.

@Drdevignair @PrashSanders @Dr_VarunMalik @hrs_journal @StBernards @KirollosGabrah @bkdoty @VivekReddyMD We have never observed such problems with monopolar focal PFA using the SmartTouch and the CardioFocus Centauri system… Could be PFA-system specific or PPM-specific?

Are you interested in the lasted Cryoballoon technology? 🥶🧊🫀 Please watch this interview about our experience with the 5th generation Cryoballoon and insights of the FROZEN-AF study. @ArminLuik @SCYap77 @kevinjmakati DanielRodriguez @RolandTilz youtu.be/z2XTn88ZiL0?si…

@LiverpoolEP @hrs_journal @DhirajGuptaBHRS Very interesting data! The LAUDABLE study clearly demonstrates that we should remain humble when treating patients with persistent AF. There are limitations of using indirect lesion metrics to guide ablation, especially in diseased atria. Kudos to @DhirajGuptaBHRS and his team.

#EPeeps What’s the rate of PV reconnection post thermal PVI in pts with pers AF + dilated/ scarred LA? We @LiverpoolEP performed a mandated 2-month repeat study in 38pt. Half of all PVs were reconnected! Now online in @hrs_journal @DhirajGuptaBHRS heartrhythmjournal.com/article/S1547-…

🆕Following the 2023 ACC/AHA/ACCP/HRS Guideline (class IA), now also the 2024 EHRA/HRS/APHRS/LAHRS 🌍Expert Consensus Statement recommends first-line AF ablation for symptomatic patients with paroxysmal AF! To cope with this, an efficient workflow is needed. #EHRA2024

The adjustable size ↕️ of the novel #POLARxFIT ❄️ #cryoballoon is very useful to adapt to different PV anatomy, as we have experienced in the Erasmus MC the last weeks. The larger 31 mm size may be better to achieve more antral lesions in larger PVs and t…lnkd.in/ePcNZyVB
