For all CardioNerds who want to understand what #EPeeps mean by 'EP study' for risk stratification, our review in JACC Journals covers the complicated history of ventricular programmed stimulation & how it is/can be applied today.Penn Electrophysiology Fellowship jacc.org/doi/abs/10.101…

Little extraction pearl. You can remove the inner sheath from Needle’s Eye snare and use it through a deflectable 8.5 Fr sheath. Works like a charm. #Epeeps #leadextraction #femoralsnare

Chest pain and ST elevation, in sequence

(a different case, age 5)

Telemetry strip annotated 'paced rhythm' - can you puzzle it out?

10 yo patient underwent wpw ablation one week before surgical correction of Ebstein abnormally. The heart surgeon found our fingerprints! This is a 7 day old rf ablation with 4mm non irrigated tip 50w 60sec

Anand Report for all new & established patient visits that are a component of longitudinal care. This is virtually all cardiology visits. The main exceptions are pre op clearance for non-patients and new patient visits that prove to be non-cardiac (GI-related chest pain) - there are…

🔥SVT Quest🔥

For EP beginners, remembering the diagnostic criteria for SVTs like AT, ORT via an AP, and AVNRT can be quite tricky😱
There’s a ton of jargon—terms like V-A-V, V-A-A-V, V-V-A responses, orthodromic His capture, total pacing prematurity, A2-H*-V*, and more—plus…
