Validation of dual atrioventricular nodal physiology in dual atrioventricular nodal non ‐reentrant tachycardia via adenosine triphosphate injection during atrial pacing: A novel insight into the role of leftward inferior extension
ConclusionThis unique case, marked by the first instance of DAVNNT caused by LIE, diagnosed through ATP injection, underscores the utility of this diagnostic approach and broadens the spectrum of our understanding and management of this condition.

Surpoint algorithm for improved guidance of ablation for ventricular tachycardia (SURFIRE ‐VT): A pilot study
ConclusionIn this pilot study, an AI-guided ablation strategy for scar-related VT resulted in shorter procedure time and average radiofrequency time per lesion with similar acute procedural and intermediate-term clinical outcomes to a non-AI-guided approach utilizing traditional ablation parameters.

Utilization of remote reprogramming to manage insertable cardiac monitor arrhythmia alert burden
ConclusionThese data suggest that utilization of ICM alert reprogramming has increased with remote capabilities, which may reduce clinic and patient burden for ICM follow-up and free clinician time for other valuable patient care activities. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

Mortality benefit with AF ablation: Impact of normal sinus rhythm seen in CABANA and EAST AFnet
AbstractAtrial fibrillation (AF) is significantly associated with morbidity and mortality and erodes the quality and quantity of life. It is standard of care to treat patients with AF and an increased risk of stroke with oral anticoagulation therapy, but the more daunting question many clinicians face is whether to pursue a “rate-only” or “rhythm” control strategy. Historical studies over the years have sought to answer this question but have found no significant difference in major clinical outcomes between the two strategies. There are opportunities based on new data to improve the natural history of the dise ase...

Reliable focal and rotational activations in CARTOFINDER mapping using the OctaRay catheter
ConclusionIn CARTOFINDER, OctaRay catheter could identify reliable focal activation with high resolution and reliable rotational activation compared with PentaRay catheter. The repetitive focal and rotational activations with short AF-CL could be the potential target during ablation. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)
