Zero‐Contrast Versus Contrast‐Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Comparative Analysis of Procedural and Long‐Term Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Zero‐contrast left atrial appendage occlusion yielded high procedural success and similar periprocedural adverse event rates compared to the contrast‐guided approach. At 45‐day follow‐up, successful LAA closure (defined as peri‐device leak ≤ 5 mm) and device‐related thrombus rates were similar.

Temporal Trends in Post‐LAAO Surveillance Imaging: Increasing Adoption of CT‐Based Follow‐Up in Contemporary Practice

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surveillance imaging after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is recommended to evaluate for peri‐device leak and device‐related thrombus, with both transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and cardiac computed tomography (CT) considered appropriate modalities.

Impact of Carina Width on Re‐Ablation Rate of Atrial Fibrillation After Primary Cryoballoon‐Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Right side carina width is associated with the incidence of reconnection of RPVs and re‐ablation. Increased left side carina width was associated with re‐ablation rate, but there was no association with reconnection of the LPVs. ABSTRACT Background Reconnection of the pulmonary veins (PVs) is the primary cause of atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes after

Navigating the Zero Fluoroscopy Frontier: Current Tools, Evidence and Future Directions in Electrophysiology Procedures

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to
