Up next at #EPLive2026: Dr. Wendy Tzou is presenting a recorded case on Bipolar Ablation! ⚡️🫀 When standard unipolar RF energy isn't enough to cross thick or deep intramural tissue substrates, switching to a bipolar configuration can be a game-changer for procedural success. #EPLiveAustin #EPLive #Cardiology #EPMidst

One of the reasons is that I'm against unnecessary animal experiments. Kudos to @True_EP @LuigiDiBiaseMD et al. for the inspiration

Interesting! @ftrae why potato? And not for example porcine?

No difference between anterior and lateral mitral lines! Should lesion stacking be done routinely? PF RF or PF PF? Have had some early reconnections despite acute block.

Precisely. My experience is the same. Durable anterior and mitral block is anatomy-dependent, not catheter-dependent.

Durable block of the anterior and mitral lines is difficult to achieve, even with a lattice-tip catheter

Some patients with vagally mediated AF can benefit most from cardioneuroablative effect and may not need full PVI Some of them may not even require any ablation in the left atrium Check out our @JACCJournals paper using shareable link (before it expires) authors.elsevier.com/a/1j39w…

We need more robust remapping data for PFA performed outside PVs
PFA a year and a half ago, veins, posterior wall and mitral isthmus line. This was the pre-map on the re-do, patient was in atypical flutter.

Na Lubelszczyźnie trwa trudna akcja gaśnicza, dlatego wspieramy strażaków i wszystkie służby pracujące na miejscu. Zapewniamy bezpłatnie paliwo, ciepłe posiłki i napoje, a wybrane stacje w regionie działają dłużej, by były dostępne wtedy, gdy są potrzebne.
