PFA is transforming EP, but remember — CIED patients weren’t included in IDE trials. Up to 20–30% of device patients may eventually need AF ablation. Real-world experience matters. Our case shows why vigilance is key when performing PFA in this group. #EPeeps #Cardiology

Presented at #ESCCongress:
Among patients with myocardial infarction and a left ventricular ejection fraction of more than 40%, beta-blockers did not lead to a lower incidence of death, reinfarction, or hospitalization for heart failure than no beta-blocker therapy. Full REBOOT trial results: nej.md/45QYbws

I yet to see a device lead without thrombus. Here are some examples. Leads are from 2 months to 18 years old. All patients underwent afib ablation and were on chronic anticoagulation. Please remember when they come with fever, it doesn’t necessarily mean they have vegetations.
