Love the poster sessions at #HRS2025
Highlight was this MacGyver solution to DF-4 ICD lead downgrade to CRT-P problem. Since industry won't give us adapters, we have to get creative.
5mm Uni to IS-1 adapter with cut lead cap as insulator turns DF-4 ICD lead into unipolar pacing lead.

PROMPT-AF Trial (PVI + lines + Vein of Marshall ethanol infusion vs PVI alone for #AFib#ablation)
* 70.7% vs 61.5% freedom from atrial arrhythmias w/o AAD in intervention arm (p=0.045, HR 0.73)
* Longer procedure/fluoro/ablation times & more effusions
