To the @Medtronic and @bostonsci@BSCCardiology representatives: electrophysiologists went into medicine to take care of patients to the best of their ability. There is no race, there is no prize for the fastest. Time does not equal results. Please stop with your social media posts regarding how long it takes to do an ablation.

Q: If you could deliver 30 W of RF energy for 30 sec using any of the ablation (abl) electrodes shown in the figure, which RF ablation catheter creates larger ablation lesion size?
A: Let’s talk about how the RF abl lesion is formed.
Window settings can have meaning in macro-reentry if windows are set correctly. Signals confirmed CI & termination in 1 burn resulted. Important to remember block is the endpoint. #Abbottcardio#EPeeps#HDGrid#SensiTherm
WMC EP is growing! We're HIRING an EP attending to our team of 4 EP docs & 4 EP NPs to expand our reach in the northern Hudson Valley. PLEASE RE-TWEET!
Interested? Pls reach out to me directly or see our ad via @ACCinTouch or @NEJM. @WestchesterMed @WMCCardsFellows@EPeeps
#OTNF annotation used to automatically display fascicular conduction AND slow conduction (DZs) in ICM w septal disease on a single map. No dynamic windowing, no manipulation. Just smarter annotation, cleaner maps and more informed decision making. @JRWinterfield@MUSC_EP
Thanks so much! @drrgoyal utilized #HDGrid aka #McGriddle to build these maps. #Omnipolar arrows showed clear ventricular breakout, correlating with successful AP term site
Society wonders why physician burnout is so real.
Cuts directed at physician skill, time, and effort are not the answer to trim US healthcare costs. I don't think anyone, including legislators @CMSGov, would want their VT ablation procedure to end when 200 min are up.
Why frequency analysis using Fourier method fails in AF: AF is non stationary signal, without proper frequency components. Thus instead of clear, dominant frequency peak, we may have situation with 2 close, competing peaks (and almost the same spectral content).
LSPV gap and slow wave speed correlation? LSPV gap rapidly identified with Omnipolar Technology (OT) and isolated with #TactiCathSE. The wave speed map was analyzed and the slow zone (red-yellow) directly correlated with the remaining connection. @AbbottCardio#AbbottAF#EPeeps
