Tandem Approach for Transvenous Lead Extraction: Efficacy, Safety, and Operational Learning Curve
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The need for transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is rising due to increased cardiovascular device implantation and an aging population. While the superior access is standard, complex cases may benefit from the Tandem approach, combining femoral and superior access to improve efficacy and safety.

Initial UK Experience of Focal Pulsed Field Ablation
ABSTRACT Background Pulsed field ablation (PFA) offers potential safety and efficacy advantages for catheter ablation. Delivering this energy source using pre‐existing contact force sensing catheters and mapping systems is attractive due to familiarity and accessibility.

ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using thermal energy—radiofrequency (RF) or cryoablation (CRYO)—is associated with direct myocardial injury and collateral neural damage. In contrast, pulsed electric field (PEF) energy has emerged as a neural‐sparing alternative.

Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been identified as a potential countermeasure to mitigate physiological deconditioning during spaceflight. Guidelines recommend that tourniquet pressure be prescribed relative to limb occlusion pressure (LOP); however, it is unclear whether body tilting or reduced gravity analogues influence LOP.

Abstract Heart failure (HF) with a mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF; 40%–49%) is present in ≤25% of HF patients. Therapeutic treatment options for HFmrEF‐associated exercise intolerance are limited. Nitric oxide (NO)‐independent stimulation of soluble guanylyl cyclase to improve peripheral vasodilatation offers a novel approach to enhance ...
