Using @MedicareGov data, we show that 5% (n=187) of EP operators are #WomeninEP. % women was stagnant from 2013-2019. Total AF operators grew by 137%, yet women operators were unchanged (4%,n=46). #EPeeps @HRSonline how can we recruit/retain more #WomeninEP?

#EPEEPS Much better stability using cryo with PVC elimination. Useful to consider focal cryo in these situations. Nice mapping by @StaceyHowellMD

What type of PAC is most useful for risk stratification of AF? – Pulmonary vein PACs were more likely to induce AF than other PACs, related to lower pulm vein AERPs @StaceyHowellMD @gregorymmarcus #AHAJournals #Epeeps ahajrnls.org/3DgxLXh

We showed that PAC frequency is the single most potent predictor of #Afib pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2429…, but does the origin matter? @StaceyHowellMD used our HOLIDAY trial data to show: PACs delivered from the PVs ➡️#Afib > other LA or RA sites pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3668… @B_Naz_MD @UCSF

#ResearchLetter:A strategy of screening AF/AFL patients with LVH @OHSUSOM for ATTR-CM with Tc-99m PYP scans was low yield: only 1 patient (1.5%) was diagnosed with the disease. @poojaprasad91 @B_Naz_MD #AHAJournals ahajrnls.org/3OU4FSd

Proud of our fellows @poojaprasad91 and @StaceyHowellMD for this. While we need to stay vigilant for undiagnosed ATTR-CM, screening AF patients (even just those w LVH) is not the way. @MasriAhmadMD
Systematic prospective evaluation shows that while ATTR-CM patients are older and frequently have AF/AVL & LVH, the reverse is not necessarily true ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.1… @CircAHA by @poojaprasad91 @B_Naz_MD @OHSUCardio

Now that we are all comfortable with LVOT/summit/pap PVCs, have had several of these posteroseptal/crux ones lately that are quite challenging. This took HP RFA from both sides of septum, including 1/2 NS. Nice mapping by @StaceyHowellMD. Any #EPEEPS have experience with these?

Heading home from #HRS2022. My highlights: -gathering with former ⁦@UCSF_EP fellows; PFA promising but not perfect… so many companies working on this- who will survive? PFA promising for VT; LBB pacing; #bringbackposters; so many enthusiastic fellows- need more women in EP!

Do pulmonary vein PACs most commonly induce #Afib because they are the most common site or origin or because they are especially arrhythmogenic? ⁦@StaceyHowellMD⁩ harnesses #HOLIDAY data to suggest it’s the latter ⁦⁦⁦@UCSFCardiology⁩ ⁦@B_Naz_MD⁩ ⁦

The need to recruit & retain more women in the #electrophysiology workforce is this month's @hrs_journal's featured study. Investigators call to further increase #diversity through a more supportive environment: spkl.io/60184R0G8 @HRSonline @ELS_Cardiology #CardioTwitter
