This case report highlights CRT‐D with Bachmann's bundle pacing (BBP) in a patient with severe heart failure and refractory atrial fibrillation. BBP preserved atrioventricular conduction without PR prolongation, maintained left ventricular–only pacing, and was associated with suppression of atrial fibrillation and improvement in left atrial contractile

Electrogram Transition Patterns During Atrial Antitachycardia Pacing‐Mediated Termination
Among 1,641 aATP‐terminated episodes in 38 patients, six electrogram transition patterns were identified. Irregular post‐aATP activity was the most common pattern preceding termination, regardless of pre‐aATP regularity (47% in regular and 63% in irregular pre‐aATP episodes). Episodes with irregular pre‐aATP activity took longer to terminate (median 13

Clinical Advantages and Pitfalls of Pulsed Field Ablation: How to Prevent ALH Syndrome
Pulsed‐field (PF) Ablation Index (combined with average contact force and number of PF pulses) accurately predicted lesion depth in the prospective validation study. Importantly, no lesion formation was observed in the absence of electrode–tissue contact when the ablation electrode was positioned only 1–2 mm away from the endocardium. ABSTRACT Catheter

Cardiac Resynchronization as an Enabler of ARNI Efficacy: Insights From a Real‐World Cohort
CRT provides the mechanical substrate that enables sacubitril/valsartan to maximize reverse remodeling. In this real‐world cohort, ARNI therapy was associated with greater improvement in left ventricular function and fewer clinically validated device‐detected HF events, particularly among CRT responders, supporting a synergistic interaction between ...
