Catheter ablation (CA) is a widely used first-line treatment for AF. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have shown its superiority to pharmacological treatment in terms of symptom control, rhythm control and mortality in selected patients; observational studies have also suggested a decreased risk of stroke.1,2 Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the standard endpoint, but studies have reported… View more

Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Yuri Blaauw , Syed Ahsan , Felix Yang , et al Added: 3 years ago
This virtual symposium combines presentations from leading practitioners, discussions, and procedural videos to look at the latest data, patient selection, fundamentals of the procedure and the set-up of a convergent AF programme. The cornerstone of atrial fibrillation (AF) is electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins (PV). In patients with non-paroxysmal AF, PV isolation alone is… View more

ESC 2020: EAST – AFNET 4 Study
Author(s): Paulus Kirchhof Added: 3 years ago
Prof Paulus Kirchhof (University Heart and Vascular Center UKE Hamburg, Hamburg, DE) discusses results of the EAST – AFNET 4 Study. The study prospectively tests the hypothesis that an early, structured rhythm control therapy based on antiarrhythmic drugs and catheter ablation can prevent atrial fibrillation (AF) related complications in patients with AF when compared to usual care. Questions… View more

Dear Sir, I read with great interest the elegant review by Mukherjee and colleagues on prophylactic VT ablation in the latest issue of the journal (AER 6(3)125-8).1 The concept is indeed revolutionary, and should extend the boundaries of interventional electrophysiology. However, such an approach cannot be feasible without rationalising patient selection. Current guidelines’ recommendations,… View more
