This ECG looks dangerous.

It may not be.

The Athlete Early Repolarization Pattern is characterized by J-point elevation, convex ST elevation, and anterior T-wave inversion—features that can raise concern during athlete screening.

In professional athletes, we found no adverse cardiovascular events attributable to the pattern with a median follow-up of ~10 years.

Exercise remodels the heart. It also remodels the ECG.

Not all human variation is disease.

Pulsed field ablation using a variable-loop circular catheter was associated with a high rate of ICLs. More than half of the lesions were in the posterior cerebrovascular territory. https://t.co/rr1WHd9fDf

VT after prior right ventricular ablation may present with a narrow-QRS complex and mimic SVT. High-density mapping and pacing maneuvers can reveal an iatrogenic conduction system–related reentrant circuit and guide effective ablation. https://t.co/5FGrZTTV1J #JACCCaseReports

It’s that bittersweet time of year! Seeing how far you’ve come but also time to say goodbye to great friends along the way. Congratulations to our graduating fellows!!! @Brigham_EP @True_EP @BrighamFellows #EPeeps @CMAlbertEP

Daily home-based stellate ganglion phototherapy reduced ATP/ICD shock burden from 3.9 to 0.0 events/month (P<0.01) in 28 patients with refractory VT — no serious adverse events. A novel outpatient neuromodulation strategy https://t.co/dGReXPRYLk

☢️STAR may silence VT, but long-term safety is still being defined. We report the first delayed ventricular septal defect occurring 2 years after STAR for VT, with dosimetric concordance at the VSD site
⚡️Long-term follow-up data are needed

Premature ventricular complexes with a QRS morphology almost identical to the sinus rhythm was caused by a His-LBB twig that could be successfully ablated in or underneath the right coronary cusp without injury to the conduction system. https://t.co/Xirmhr67Ri #JACCCEP

What to do when amiodarone and propranolol fail and catheter ablation is not feasible? Stellate ganglion block may be helpful.
