First use of HD-Grid X in the region to map six cases of complex ventricular arrhythmias. Thanks to @fcardioinfantil and
@Abbott for their continuous support in bringing the best technology to our patients.
Some post-case learning with @danealson (Dr. Neal Bhatia) and @_shannonmillard: following an ischemic VT case, together we compared how the clinical VT circuit presented when mapped with the First Deflection algorithm versus EnSite™ OT Near Field.
What we found brings up an interesting question. Is it better to….
- Force the system to visualize the full circuit with First Deflection, or
- Illustrate the potential midmyocardial bridges and touchdown points with OT NF?
While there may not be a "correct" answer, we think there is value in appreciating both pieces of information. And if nothing else, it makes for a fun discussion with talented colleagues like Dr. Bhatia and Shannon.
We started our first PFA -FP zero-floro cases using the EnSite Contact Index Module to assess electrode-to-tissue distance based on impedance. This is a complementary tool to evaluate contact during PFA that seems to optimize efficacy and efficiency
Simple, but significant 👀🎯
Standard ablation catheters can miss signals due to bipolar blindness—when electrodes line up with the wavefront. HDG maps from all angles, so nothing gets hidden.
Ensite X with Peak Frequency + OTNF integration helps pinpoint DZ in scar VT patients
➡️ Smarter VT substrate mapping
➡️ Focused ablation strategies
Redefining how we see VT.

Epi-Endo VT ablation. Recurrent ICD interventions after 2 endo ablations.
Successful epi access with the dry puncture technique (thanks to the course led by Javier from @Arritmias_HRC). No inducible arrhythmia under GA. ILAM + S3 DEEP for substrate delineation

Nearly incessant slow AT from anterolateral TVA (notorious spot for pathway recurrence) on a patient with prior PVI, PWI, and CTI line. We got good stability with Agilis sheath from femoral access and terminated ❤️🔥 with 3 seconds of RF! Is it usually better to do IJ here? #EPeeps
3x1!! Three different tachycardias on RA in the same patient! All succefully ablated ⚡ Posterior AP, Micro-reentrant in Atrial floor and AT in Lateral TA 🤯

Arrancamos el día 2 de #LATAMEPExperts de la mano del Dr. @drluissaenz
Hoy el enfoque está en las taquicardias ventriculares: discusión de casos complejos, estrategias avanzadas de mapeo y técnicas de ablación. #AbbottProud
It’s happening! LATAM EP Experts 2025 has already started. Full house with this amazing ICE masterclass starring @MRazminia. Happy to see you all during April 4th - 5th #AbbottProud#LATAMEPExperts2025
