*⃣LOT-CRT vs Traditional CRT: New insights from the CSPOT sub-study by Upadhyay et al @pvijayaraman1
🌟LBBAP optimized CRT (LOT-CRT = LBBAP + LV lead) C/W standard BiVP in pts w LBBB or nonspecific IVCD.
🌟 Rationale - both CS pacing & attempted LBBAP can result in sub-optimal QRS morphology.
⭐️At 6 months, LOT-CRT produced a 16% ↑ in LVEF and 43% ↓ in LVESV vs 6% ↑ and 21% ↓ with BVP (p < 0.01).

Don’t wait for symptoms to develop in severe AS!
No more “watchful waiting”

Earlier switch to the left is a preferred approach in recurrent / failed AVNRT ablation! This case had 2 times failed ablation! Did Slow ( LIE) abl. here👇! #Epeeps

Fantastic review from the European group, which is very close in recommendations to what the @SCC_CCS AF group published earlier this year.
It’s nice to see societies align on such an important topic.

In this prospective multicenter study, a single dose of 120 mg inhaled flecainide acetate resulted in a high rate of conversion to sinus rhythm at 90 minutes without serious side effects.
