Worldwide experience with irrigated needle ablation of refractory ventricular arrhythmias! Read about it in #JACCCEP: bit.ly/3pWInH6 #EPeeps #CardioTwitter #epAblation @utedrow @jskoruth @UBatnyam_EP @VivekReddyMD

Really enjoyed interacting with a diverse group of cardiology and EP fellows with @AndreaRussoEP @aalahmadmd @ep_travis and Paul Wang. Highlight: assembling leads manually. So much respect when I handle a lead next! So much to share and so much more to learn! #EPeeps

Device implanted for x10 episodes syncope concerning for paroxysmal AVB. LV function normal. How do you program the device #EPeeps? Poll in next tweet.

What’s the physiology here #EPeeps, fellows first. @True_EP could probably help you out. Ok now time to 🔥

Clinical implication—> induce before you map, you may never see that VT again. #ablateVT

#EPFellows, #EPeeps Incessant VT, first place your catheter lands has nice diastolic signal. RF On? #EntrainFirst, #AblateVT. @KaramAyoub5 @TiffanyHuMD @vumccardsfit @DrGregMichaud

Nice #epeeps, not everything in "diastolic buffet" is fresh 😉, right @DrRoderickTung . Adj bystander are passively activated sites w/ access to protected isthmus, #entrainfirst. Here's a better site with map. Red star is the pictured site, yellow star is prior bystander site.

The SERF Study, using a heated saline needle inserted into myocardium, was highly effective in elimination of VT in patients. failing prior ablation and reducing ICD usage @akillumd @wgstevenson1 @ep_travis #AHAJournals #Epeeps ahajrnls.org/3wzGFvF

#Epeeps, here's the explanation of the recordings from my prior tweet. Entrainment of sustained VT in reply. #AblateVT

Last chance #Epeeps. Why does the paced QRS change with the extrastim? I’ll post follow up tomorrow. #AblateVT

#Epeeps I have to brag on our graduating fellow @KaramAyoub5, two LB pacers for CHB (QRS 115 & 95), two zero fluoro AF cases, and a decremental posteroseptal AP by 5. I’d say he’s ready. @ArvindhKana @jaymontgomery44. Will make @VUMC_heart proud at UK.

Many #EPeeps thinking the below parahisian pacing is confounded by direct atrial capture. Here it is annotated with components of the local EGM, showing the wider beats are nsHBP (His+V capture) and the narrower beats are sHBP (His capture). No A capture xitter.cf/jeffrey_vinocur/status…
#EPeeps How do you interpret this parahisian pacing? VA=61 with wider beats VA=61 with narrower beats @MGKatz036 @drbilalmunir
