@pjsm83 @baskovski @akyurek_omer @timucin_alt @ozkanatfirat @seeenaaay @elifoykucelik The monorail is a little bit smaller and can fit with an OTW balloon in a 7F guide - I usually go with 8FR so I don’t use monorails much

@OfSinusAndChaos @naijaQRS @AZ_EP_DOC @aalahmadmd @DrRoderickTung @AlexTurinMD @AnandShah_MD @rainylakedana VOM ethanol does not lead to anterior block, unless you inject the wrong vein. - It is amusing to read concerns about excessive ablation and then see “mostly red” maps with RF…

@finnakerstrom @syamkumarmd @DrRoderickTung @DrFerminGarcia All is allowed in Re-do’s after the primary endpoint is reached. I think the benefit of PVI is limited, and the benefit of PVI-VOM-lines is probably more but also limited. On re-dos, all is equalized. Or simply the study is underpowered to detect re-do differences.

Here I put VOM ethanol in perspective. Its future role in the face of evolving technologies (PFA...) is to be determined. But beyond technologies, more mechanistic research is needed to improve outcomes of persistent AF ablation. @MRobinsonEP

@DrJasonAndrade @johnlsapp My greatest admiration for Canada's collaborative spirit. Biggest impact in sustained VT below detection limit... so yes, ablation group had less slower VT than drugs ... Also, amiodarone subgroup looked pretty similar to ablation... Still a lot of work to do to improve ablation

@enricoferroMD 3. I would be concerned about LCx heating during RF from LAA aiming at a ventricular site 4. I would look in LAO caudal to see the intramural veins between distal gcv and AiV : you may find some suitable for ethanol with better signals

@mertilkerh I think that’s the smallest balloon Sometimes those have tons of capillaries and make great lesions!
