Using @MedicareGov data, we show that 5% (n=187) of EP operators are
#WomeninEP. % women was stagnant from 2013-2019. Total AF operators grew by +137%, yet women operators were unchanged (4%,n=46). #EPeeps@HRSonline how can we recruit/retain more #WomeninEP?

What type of PAC is most useful for risk stratification of AF? – Pulmonary vein PACs were more likely to induce AF than other PACs, related to lower pulm vein AERPs @StaceyHowellMD@gregorymmarcus#AHAJournals#Epeeps https://t.co/eZk5drpgYd
We showed that PAC frequency is the single most potent predictor of #Afib https://t.co/Kp3vL4CpyQ, but does the origin matter? @StaceyHowellMD used our HOLIDAY trial data to show: PACs delivered from the PVs ➡️#Afib > other LA or RA sites https://t.co/fQRf3Iz6Hz @B_Naz_MD@UCSF

#ResearchLetter:A strategy of screening AF/AFL patients with LVH @OHSUSOM for ATTR-CM with Tc-99m PYP scans was low yield: only 1 patient (1.5%) was diagnosed with the disease. @poojaprasad91@B_Naz_MD#AHAJournals https://t.co/KtnhxX1LSY
Proud of our fellows @poojaprasad91 and @StaceyHowellMD for this. While we need to stay vigilant for undiagnosed ATTR-CM, screening AF patients (even just those w LVH) is not the way. @MasriAhmadMD
Now that we are all comfortable with LVOT/summit/pap PVCs, have had several of these posteroseptal/crux ones lately that are quite challenging. This took HP RFA from both sides of septum, including 1/2 NS. Nice mapping by @StaceyHowellMD. Any #EPEEPS have experience with these?
