We are so excited to join with our MGB cardiology colleagues for our first recruitment cycle for CCEP! MGB Electrophysiology ID 1542411028 on ERAS/NRMP!! Watch for our combined handle. Great mentors, education, cases, collaboration. #EPeeps #AblateVT @paulzei @MoussaMansour10

[MGB Cardiology Fellows @MGBCVFellows]

We're excited to officially kick off recruitment for the first-ever Mass General Brigham Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship Programs!
Bringing together the strengths of BWH and MGH, we're proud to offer exceptional clinical training, world-class research & outstanding mentorship.

🔥 Beyond placebo!

Does AF ablation really improve quality of life?

Our meta-analysis of sham-controlled RCTs shows that with AF ablation:

✅ +13.5 AFEQT points
✅ 51% lower AF recurrence
✅ Benefit beyond active-treatment controls

....and this is with SHORT follow-up and an "active treatment" control!

We have known about #WPW and accessory pathways as a common cause of SVT for >100 years and have effective procedures to address them, but we still have NO IDEA why some patients are born with these extra slivers of muscle that electrically connect atria to ventricles. Medicinal use of lithium in pregnant women leads to heightened risk of a particular form of congenital heart disease associated with these pathways. Might variable levels of lithium in drinking water affect the chance a growing fetus will be born with such a pathway? @jclinicalinvest @UCSF @UCSFHospitals @stopafib @DrDave01 @KnowYourPulse

JCI - Elevated lithium levels in drinking water are associated with higher prevalence of Wolff-Parkinson-White diagnoses https://t.co/WFUt4tcd2a

A #JACCCEP study showed that in pts. w/ prior spontaneous polymorphic VT/VF, adjunctive Purkinje de-networking during VT #epAblation was associated with a substantial reduction in recurrent ventricular arrhythmias, w/ a modest increase in risk of LBBB.

Great to see imaging and mapping come together so clearly in this recent case with Dr. @EsseimS and the @UHhospitals Cleveland team 💪🏻

An initial ILAM map demonstrated deceleration zones along the border of fatty infiltration in the RV. The #VT was easily inducible and hemodynamically tolerated, allowing mapping in VT as well. The circuit location correlated nicely with the imaging and was confirmed by entrainment.

The VT terminated after only a few lesions and, after additional ablation in the area of interest, was rendered non-inducible. The entire procedure was completed in under three hours.
Thank you Mitchell Kershner for the excellent mapping.

Honoured that @RobNKerley and @utedrow wrote and editorial about our article of VT ablation results (room for improvement!) in Ring-like NICM patients. 3D scar matters! Congrats @RaimondoPi4757 @aportasanchez @hospitalclinic

[Usha Tedrow @utedrow]

Such an important issue for #AblateVT!#EPeeps

[Rob Kerley @RobNKerley]

In VT ablation, does scar architecture matter more than scar burden, and is noninducibility equally meaningful across substrates?

Pleased to share our editorial with @utedrow, discussing the intriguing findings of Pittorru et al. in @JACCJournals.
