Reported reversible severe infranodal conduction disturbances following a COVID-19 vaccination in a young woman 💉. R/L bundle branch conduction were impaired but recovered, resulting in reversible paroxysmal complete AV block. #NewOnline #JECG https://t.co/4MH4BuRNtn

@ecgandrhythmRoe Why is there no change in morphology of P waves between sinus (pre-excited) and junctional (non-prexcited) beats? Surely, we would expect some change in P wave morphology with reversal of atrial depolarization.

Finally recording the narration for my SVT talk. So far, over 1h 30min, and not even halfway through....
This SVT diagnosis video is going to be EPIC!!!!

🚨#EHRAtopicweek on AF ablation as first line therapy!

@DrJasonAndrade:
CIRCA-DOSE trial ➡️Catheter ablation of paroxysmal AF using radiofrequency energy was associated with fewer patients developing persistent AF on follow-up.

@ecgandrhythmRoe Atpical AFL with variable AV conduction. (NOT AV Block)

@ecgandrhythmRoe Atrial flutter with V pace. There is no intrinsic conduction (?AVN ablation)

What was the signal like at site of termination? Also, how did you reach at this area? Was it as a result of scanning with ablation catheter along posterior wall?

@jwoodfilm @AvantiWestCoast @AndyBurnhamGM @AvantiWestCoast why give the illusion of seat security when you can’t enforce reservation and leave passengers to either fight it out among themselves or involve transport police?

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.

In this prospective, multicenter, single-blind RCT, a strategy of PVI-only vs PVI + PWI using HPSD in patients w/ persistent #AFib showed no difference in primary outcome of atrial arrhythmia recurrence but resulted in sig. longer procedures. https://t.co/ClRhkQ2E8l #JACCCEP

@RashadKhaziSyed @drpaari @skarim01 @Nishaki1 @Hapa_EP Proximal to mid septum, close to conduction system. Will have to map both right and left sides. I would start mapping from RV side, and then LV.
