Supraventricular Tachycardia Ablation in the Elderly—Characteristics and Outcomes

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
This single‐center retrospective study found that supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) ablation is safe and effective in younger and elderly patients. It should be considered for all symptomatic individuals regardless of age. However, the type of SVT and the presence of comorbidities, including frailty, should be considered in the clinical decision ...

Contemporary Perspectives on J‐Wave Syndromes: An Expert Consensus Statement

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT J‐wave syndromes (JWS)—comprising Brugada syndrome (BrS) and early repolarization syndrome (ERS)—are important causes of malignant ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in patients whose hearts appear structurally normal. Since the 2016 consensus, advances in genetics, pathophysiology, and therapy have redefined both understanding ...

Tandem Approach for Transvenous Lead Extraction: Efficacy, Safety, and Operational Learning Curve

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 282-295, February 2026.
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.
