Left ventricular lead position matters in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy. Previously we showed that repositioning an unfavourably positioned LV lead was beneficial: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article… Here we show similar observational results in a larger cohort: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Right sided CRT upgrade in patient with laminopathy and huge (10x10cm) right atrium. Easy CS cannulation with Worley sheath + handshaped Cordis MPB 1 guide and then amplatz wire for stability during PL lead placement - thank you @seth_j_worley for tips!

The relentless @MdHuang presents his data on HBP/LBBAP in AVN ablation. *90% HBP success vs. 100% LBBAP ** Equivalent effect (none) on LVEF ***23 patients switched from HBP to LBBAP for LBBB ****Very low complication rate. #HRS2021 #EPeeps @EPeeps_Bot

New in #JACCCEP: #LBBAP is a feasible & safe alternative for #CRT w/ low & stable thresholds w/ improved NYHA class & #echocardiogram outcomes. Read more about this multicenter, international study from @HisDoc1 & Marek_Jastrz_EP et al. here: bit.ly/2NcJn6T #ACCIntl

#EPeeps 75yr male, DCM, LBBB, Chronic AF, AVN ablated. Two previous suboptimal LV leads w exit-block, Wise-CRT impossible acoustic window in supine position. Amazing shortening of QRSd to 130ms with HBP+ postlat LV, after extraction of previous 4 leads. Case done w/ Dr. Mörtsell.

New #PARADIGMHF analysis by Dr. Luis Rohde, @Nchatterjeemd, and @mvaduganathan shows #ARNI prevents sudden death in #HFrEF. Will optimal #GDMT implementation change who may ultimately require an #ICD? Find out here: bit.ly/360MnJ9

For first time in its 208 years, the New England Journal of Medicine has endorsed a presidential candidate. It’s accompanying editorial is the best, most succinct examination I have read of the country’s leadership failure in the pandemic. nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

Delighted to share our sudden death analysis in PARADIGM-HF @JACCJournals Paper: bit.ly/2FmDHTy Primary findings: 1) ⬆️global variation in prim prev ICD use 2) ICD ⬇️SCD ~56% (similar for ICM and NICM) 3) S/V ⬇️SCD ~20% ICD-eligible and ~50% in ICD pts
