@DrGregMichaud Cool case! If I’m seeing it correctly, there is delay of A during zone of fusion which suggests ORT. However, it seems that the stim-A doesn’t become fixed in the TZ as expcected in ORT. Also, SA vs VA seems long by eye caliper.

@KaramAyoub5 @Ed_Gerst @javadm20 Do you think there’s fusion of the orthodromic and antidromic wavefronts on last paced beat on CS 5/6?

The SURVIVE-VT Trial is published in JACC. Substrate VT ablation is superior to AADs as first line therapy!!

I can’t decide if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that I’ve flown so much recently that I’m now qualifying for free upgrades to first class on @Delta.

@kursatakbuga @Heart_BMJ @Obisht Loose suture collar ratchet effect. True twiddler syndrome is very rare and the other leads are fine.

@jaymontgomery44 @MSampleMD No communal saliva bags so far on my @Delta flight but a lot of people wearing colorful antlers for some reason.

On this #VeteransDay we honor those who served in our armed forces. We recognize the perilous moment in which we find ourselves, and pray the example of shared sacrifice by those who have worn the uniform of this great nation can bring us greater unity and sense of community.
