Cardiac EP. Admirer of new and disruptive science. Anthropology enthusiast and an advocate for a less plastic world. Opinions are my own

[Apoor Patel @PatelApoor]

Excited to share our multicenter study from Houston Methodist: Pulsed field ablation led to lower 30-day readmissions and higher same-day discharge vs RF ablation for AF. Important implications for quality and cost.

Year 5 of the Murph Challenge complete for my husband, but every day he quietly overcomes the challenges of a heart failure diagnosis. Proud of his conviction to complete this workout every year. @NileshMathuria

Hey #EPeeps. Could we one day “see” our ablation lesions? Initial proof of concept in-vivo data using #photoacoustic imaging. More to learn! Collaboration with Drs Carly Filgueira lab @HMethodistCV and Richard Bouchard @MDAndersonNews

It’s not all Covid. Acute Legionella associated heart block. #EPeeps #MedTwitter

🌟Thrilled to share my book, Maya’s Magical Heart—a children’s story to empower young readers to navigate their cardiac health with courage, resilience, and joy. I am deeply grateful for the unwavering support and encouragement of my mentors and friends.

American Heart Association's free CPR/AED training sessions were brought to Carnegie by BLS/AED certified sophomore, Vyshnavi K. Over 30 students were successfully trained making our school part of the AHA's vital effort to save the lives of cardiac arrest victims across the US.

Hey #EPeeps. Wonder how many cases like below will be missed in current #PFA era for #ablateAF. Pt with PAF with no prior h/o SVT and planned PVI with PFA.

Kudos to @HRSonline for advocating EP study/endpoints for AF ablation

[Heart Rhythm Society @HRSonline]

BREAKING NEWS: HRS releases new policy on catheter ablation for the treatment of #AFib. Key takeaways include:

- Reaffirming foundational principles, including anatomically-based ablation approaches and electrophysiological endpoints
- Emphasizing the need for electrophysiological testing
- Reinforcing training requirements

Should #VT preclude #LVAD implant? Perhaps not according to @HMethodistCV experience!
Work by @spandatmd et al. Collab with HF team @RayanYousefzai @hfdocbhimaraj @AshrithGuhaMD
Much more to learn! #EPeeps

While on the Hill today I stopped by congressman Weber’s office (rep Galveston, TX) to talk about childhood obesity, children losing Medicaid with unwinding and safe gun storage - all important #childhealth issues in our district.

Recent patient encounter

Patient: I underwent successful open chest cryoablation for WPW >40yrs ago

Me: Wow. Amazing to see how far EP has evolved

Patient: Your welcome

A perfect reply! Reminder of the privilege we have to not only treat but to learn from our pts #Epeeps
