"ESCAPE MAPPING". I use this in every AF ablation case.. makes touching up PVI gaps much easier than what I used to do. Pace from the ablator and make your CS as reference. Then just look for the purple breakthrough! #AFablation @thejvandoren

Recommendations for nuanced AAD management, including:
Use of 1Cs in stable CAD?
Restarting dofetilide/sotalol without hospitalization?
AAD interactions with other drugs and CIEDS.
…+ 46 other recommendations.

This saturday and next saturday! Cardiology fellows (and other cardiology curious individuals) all welcome to the 11th annual virtual boot camp!
Welcome to the new cardiology fellows! Please join us for the free fellows bootcamp now in its 11th year!
July 18 and 25 mornings.
All star faculty on all the topics you need to survive starting!

Hot off the press! We showed that increasing number of PFA applications for AF is associated with reduced arrhythmia recurrence without affecting procedure times or complication rate.

Excited to share this new book on Cardiac CT!
Forever grateful to Dr. Braunwald who asked me to write this and for his guidance and mentorship along the way. While we are mourning his recent passing, I will treasure all the conversations I had with him on #CCT and #Prevention

(1) We have cases where PVCs are not produced on the table, particularly after sedation. @drrakeshg1 and I were able to prove a theory I have held for years regarding the MOA of outflow tract PVCs. Our workflow allows for identification of the trigger site when PVCs are absent.
We are excited to be bringing the best cutting edge cardiac rhythm technologies to Brooklyn. The first @Medtronic @MDT_Cardiac @AfferaEP case in Brooklyn /Queens! Thank you Medtronic and @nyulangone @NYULangoneBK @LarryChinitz for your support!

📢 NEW FDA APPROVAL marks a milestone for #PFA.
Introducing the FARAPOINT™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) Catheter—the first and only focal catheter designed and optimized for PFA—built on the proven FARAPULSE™ PFA Platform. FARAPOINT creates deep, durable focal and linear-shaped lesions in a single catheter, unlocking new possibilities for optimized point-by-point workflows for CTI ablations.

Very nice! Uses my escape mapping technique (reference 17). We've actually been doing this at NYU for the ventricular insertion as well. Very useful
4/10 – Inverted Mapping of Accessory Pathways
*⃣A Bordeaux-led study updates the “inverted mapping” concept using modern 3D mapping + pacing techniques.
🌟Highlights:
➡️Targets the ventricular insertion by finding the shortest stim-to-A interval during ventricular pacing.
➡️Works especially well for oblique, epicardial, or concealed pathways.
➡️Increased precision in cases where AP potentials are elusive.
🧑🎓This paper combines EP maneuvers with state-of-the-art mapping, producing a powerful tool for complex AP ablations.

This is totally awesome. So if you ask chatgpt what nation has the best cardiology care in the world, it says the United States. So by that rationale NYU is #1 in the world for Cardiovascular care. :-)
Proud that @nyulangone is ranked #1 in the nation for Cardiology, Heart & Vascular Surgery by @usnews. A true reflection of our extraordinary team, collaborative culture, and unwavering focus on patient care. Grateful to be part of it. #NYULangone #CardiologyExcellence

Pacemakers and ICDs using endovascular RV leads are an important predictor of incident tricuspid regurgitation, BUT #Afib, hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, and heart failure all exhibit even higher point estimate magnitudes of risk. Congrats and strong work @hilarybowmanMD former @UCSFHospitals resident now @CedarsSinai cardiology fellow.

#EPeeps What are the textbooks you now recommend for new fellows/APPs who want to learn about devices and pacing algorithms and programming? My books from 15 years ago are out of print ;-). Or what are the sites u recommend? Or articles..
