The Ultrasound version of the Caudal Tilt for device implant access thanks to my @nyulangone colleagues. Because who needs pneumothoraxes?

Our first paper @CircAHA from Phoenix is a huge milestone! This collective passion piece is likely our final installment of #ILAM x #VTin3D as it ties together both concepts and re-defines lines of block as fixed barriers in human VT:
1.) Deceleration zones are due to localized lines of block.
2.) Differential pacing should be applied to the ventricle.
3.) The argument for functional isthmus boundaries may be debunked.
4.) Surface maps are merely conic sections through a #hyperboloid circuit.
Congrats @TakuroNishimu and team! #ablateVT

Novel tips to aid in diagnosing concealed Nodoventricular/Hisventricular APs. Thank you so much Dr Pat Tchou for your great contribution to this field. @Ed_Gerst@HHsiaMD@WongChrisX Dr.Reggie Ho Dr.Belhassen @MelScheinman@UCSFCardiology

Coffee is one of the most commonly consumed beverages in the world, but its acute health effects are uncertain. In particular, whether coffee has proarrhythmic effects is a matter of debate. New research findings are summarized in a short video. https://t.co/7HOOMuTkaG
Read "Acute Effects of Coffee Consumption on Health among Ambulatory Adults," the NEJM Original Article referenced in this @TIME article: https://t.co/7HOOMuTkaG
Acute Effects of Coffee Consumption
on Health among Ambulatory Adults: @NEJM
This is fun. Few remarks: small sample (type ii error is a concern), a lot of confounders (still remain) in part related to blinding, mediations, and adherences. Great attempt though!
Summary 👇👇
A randomized trial of coffee consumption showed no increased of premature atrial contractions (PACs). Secondary endpoints (hypothesis-generating): more PVCs, more physical activity, ~30 mins less sleep, no change in glucose levels

Excited to share our work on pulsed field ablation in the ventricle including in and around scar of in-vivo MI models. PFA may be able to selectively target surviving myocytes within scar. https://t.co/S76cOJz97d #EPeeps@Ed_Gerst@EladAnter@PrashSanders@atulverma_md
My colleague Ben Levin says "Isolated cardiac sarcoid is both over- and under-diagnosed." Proud of @mallika_lalMD & @crchenMD for this screening study in which we found 36% of patients with presumed "isolated CS" actually had a genetic CMP. https://t.co/4JfHvGx0f8. @MasriAhmadMD

ischemic cmp w/ incessant VT despite amio/lido/BB and multiple cardioversions. Non indicible with 4 extrastim after targeting all diast activity. Thanks to @NRamdoyal for the hemodynamic support #AblateVT

1/ When I first started implanting LBB leads, I found it helpful to see how pacing morphology changed across the RV septum, so I got this made. Perhaps other people will also find it helpful. This applies to a patient with a normal-(ish) septum. #Epeeps#dontdisthehis
