One-Stop PVI and LAA Closure: A Concomitant AF Ablation Case
Author(s): Added: 1 month ago
Dr Amr Nawar (Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, OM) walks through a concomitant pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and left atrial appendage (LAA) closure procedure in a single 90-minute session — treating the arrhythmia and addressing embolic risk simultaneously.The case centres on a 70-year-old male with atrial fibrillation and a history of two transient ischaemic attacks. Dr Nawar details… View more

Beyond PVI: Does Dual-Energy PFA Change the Way We Ablate?
Author(s): Isabel Deisenhofer Added: 1 month ago
Dr Isabel Deisenhofer joins us to explore how the integration of pulsed field and radiofrequency energy within a single-catheter system is reshaping ablation strategy beyond pulmonary vein isolation.As PFA technology matures, the conversation is shifting from "does it work?" to "how do we use it best?" The emergence of dual-energy platforms — combining the safety profile of PFA with the… View more

EHRA 24: FIH Novel PFA Catheter for PVI
Author(s): Vivek Reddy Added: 2 years ago
EHRA 24 - We interview Dr Vivek Reddy (Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, US) on a first-in-human clinical trial of a novel conformable "single-shot" pulsed field ablation (PFA) catheter for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI).This single arm trial aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of PVI using an 8Fr PFA catheter (SpherePVI, Affera Inc) in 30 patients across three centers.Interview… View more
