Coffee increases PVCs but not PACs! Congrats to @gregorymmarcus on a nice, practical study. I managed to participate / though giving up that daily coffee wasn’t easy!

Ten days ago, I was hit by a vehicle crossing the street as a pedestrian. I reflect on the harrowing experience in my @Forbes blog.

Live case with @BiosenseWebster Varipulse PFA technology - great integration with the mapping system with ability to track catheter position and avoid fluoroscopy

@ElaineWanMD Actually NICM, LBBB and ICD with ATP/shocks.
The diagnosis was prob a fascicular VT rather than bundle branch reentry VT based on the HVs, but fun to think about slightly shorter HV during VT with BBR VT due to asymmetric ante and retro conduction times? Too sick to prove.

#EPeeps may all our most complex arrhythmias this week turn out to be this.

@Ed_Gerst Psaf so heterogenous (we need to fine tune subtypes). But lspaf with dilation /scar I think it’s a good lesion set in CF and high power era. Often see noninducibility, and in our data 22% redos (~2 years), a starting gambit. If others do less though- I don’t think it’s wrong :)

@NishantVermaMD @Ed_Gerst @DrBradleyKnight @NMCardioVasc Thanks for the invite, and wonderful job putting this series together!

interesting paper from Sinai colleagues demonstrating evidence of myocardial inflammation in patients with MVP, even those who are asymptomatic

Masterfully written, with the wisdom of one who has worn many hats over his career @sacjai

My latest @Forbes post is a personal reflection on lessons learned so far trying to create change in healthcare. What are the unexpected lessons that you’ve learned?

Congratulations to @50wattdoc and team. 👏👏👏 A 4-year follow-up history w HPSD. The 4-year freedom from AF after multiple ablations were PAF: 87.0%, per AF: 71.9% and LSPAF: 64.9%. Single procedure success was 74.9% for TactiCath™ and 64.7% for SmartTouch®(P<0.001)

@EPWoodsShop @SergioPinski @dredcronin Mechanism is likely APD shortening as APs achieve new steady state. The mechanism of restitution depends on different currents in atrium, HPS, ventricle

@EPWoodsShop @SergioPinski @dredcronin I think Dr. Masood Akhtar may have been the first to use this term, but correct me if someone was earlier! https://t.co/KOoHPmQr0R

When it comes to re-opening, SCIENCE -- not politics -- must be California's guide.

CA has developed 6 indicators that will help guide how and when we decide to re-open our economy. This isn’t about an on/off switch. This will be a thoughtful process -- led by public health...
