William H. Sauer, MD, FHRS, CCDS, Brigham and Women's Hospital, is joined by Arif Elvan, MD, PhD, Klinikum Braunschweig, and Usha B. Tedrow, MD, MS, FHRS, Brigham and Women's Hospital, to discuss if Voltage mapping could identify the conducting channels potentially responsible for ventricular tachycardia (VT). Standard thresholds (0.5–1.5 mV) were established using bipolar catheters. No thresholds have been analyzed with high-density mapping catheters. In addition, channels identified by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) have been proven to be related to VT. https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://doi.org/10.1016/j.hrthm.2024.04.074 Host Disclosure(s): W.

William Sauer, MD, FHRS, CCDS, Brigham and Women's Hospital is joined by Tobias Reichlin, MD, University Hospital Basel, Switzerland, and Nikolas Nozica, MD, Brigham and Women's Hospital, to discuss the Nature Medicine article Safety of pulsed field ablation in more than 17,000 patients with atrial fibrillation in the MANIFEST-17K study. The following is a brief summary of the study covered in the article. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is an emerging technology for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF), for which pre-clinical and early-stage clinical data are suggestive of some degree of preferentiality to myocardial tissue ablation without damage to adjacent structures. Here in the MANIFEST-17K study, we assessed the safety of PFA by studying the post-approval use of this treatment modality. Of the 116 centers performing post-approval PFA with a pentaspline catheter, data were received from 106 centers (91.4% participation) regarding 17,642 patients undergoing PFA (mean age 64, 34.7% female, 57.8% paroxysmal AF, and 35.2% persistent AF). No esophageal complications, pulmonary vein stenosis, or persistent phrenic palsy was reported (transient palsy was reported in 0.06% of patients; 11 of 17,642). Major complications, reported for ~1% of patients (173 of 17,642), were pericardial tamponade (0.36%; 63 of 17,642) and vascular events (0.30%; 53 of 17,642). Stroke was rare (0.12%; 22 of 17,642) and death was even rarer (0.03%; 5 of 17,642). Unexpected complications of PFA were coronary arterial spasm in 0.14% of patients (25 of 17,642) and hemolysis-related acute renal failure necessitating hemodialysis in 0.03% of patients (5 of 17,642). Taken together, these data indicate that PFA demonstrates a favorable safety profle by avoiding much of the collateral damage seen with conventional thermal ablation. PFA has the potential to be transformative for the management of patients with AF.  https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://doi.org/10.1038/s41591-024-03114-3 Host Disclosure(s): W.

William H. Sauer, MD, FHRS, CCDS, Brigham and Women's Hospital is joined by Ezim Ajufo, MD, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Victor Nauffal, MD, Brigham and Women's Hospital to discuss the Patients with rare, pathogenic cardiomyopathy (CM) and arrhythmia variants that can present with atrial fibrillation (AF). The efficacy of AF ablation in these patients is unknown. This study tested the hypotheses that: 1) patients with a pathogenic variant in any CM or arrhythmia gene have increased recurrence following AF ablation; and 2) patients with a pathogenic variant associated with a specific gene group (arrhythmogenic left ventricular CM [ALVC], arrhythmogenic right ventricular CM, dilated CM, hypertrophic CM, or a channelopathy) have increased recurrence.  https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jacep.2024.06.035 Host Disclosure(s): W.

William H. Sauer, MD, FHRS, CCDS, Brigham and Women's Hospital is joined by Jorge Romero, MD, FHRS, Brigham and Women's Hospital-Harvard Medical School, and Joshua Cooper, MD, FHRS, Temple University Health System to discuss how the posterior wall isolation (PWI) is commonly incorporated into catheter ablation (CA) strategies for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) in an attempt to improve outcomes. In the CAPLA randomized study, adjunctive PWI did not improve freedom from atrial arrhythmia at 12 months compared with pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone. Whether additional PWI reduces arrhythmia recurrence over the longer term remains unknown.  https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/ehae580 Host Disclosure(s): W.

Deepthy Varghese, MSN, ACNP, FNP, Northside Hospital is joined by Sirena Bridges, MSN, FNP-BC, CCDS, VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare, and Jodie L. Hurwitz,  MD, FHRS, North Texas Heart Center to discuss the effects of metoprolol and carvedilol on the risk of atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATA) and ventricular arrhythmia (VA) in over 4,000 heart failure (HF) patients with a primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) by pooling data from five landmark ICD trials. Carvedilol treatment was associated with a 35% reduction in the risk of ATA and a corresponding decrease in the risk of inappropriate ICD shocks when compared to metoprolol. While there was a trend towards a lower risk of fast VA with carvedilol, this finding did not reach statistical significance. Carvedilol's unique properties, including its ability to block both β and α receptors, improve hemodynamics, and exhibit antiarrhythmic effects, may contribute to its superior outcomes. Overall, these results suggest that carvedilol may be preferred as the first-line beta-blocker choice in HF patients with a primary prevention ICD, but further prospective studies are needed to validate these findings and assess the impact of contemporary HF therapies on arrhythmic outcomes https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacep.2023.06.009 Host Disclosure(s): D.

William H. Sauer, MD, FHRS, CCDS, Brigham and Women's Hospital is joined by Edward P. Gerstenfeld, MD, MS, FHRS, University of California, San Francisco, and Yasser Rodriguez, MBA, MD, Cleveland Clinic Florida to discuss; Background: Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are common and associated with worse outcomes in patients with heart failure. Class 1C antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) effectively suppress PVCs, but guidelines currently restrict their use in structural heart disease. Conclusions: Class 1C AADs effectively suppressed PVCs in patients with NICM and ICDs, leading to increases in LVEF and biventricular pacing percentage. In this limited sample, their use was safe. Larger studies are needed to confirm the safety of this approach.   https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jacep.2024.01.021 Host Disclosure(s): W.

How did a space-age invention become ubiquitous in today's digital imaging landscape? Learn all about it here in our latest podcast, featuring pioneers of photography and digital imaging.   In 1993, noted physicist and engineer Eric Fossum led the invention of the CMOS active-pixel image sensor as part of his work for NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Then, as part of JPL's mandate to seek commercial and consumer applications for emerging technologies, he was active in the transfer of the CMOS sensor's “camera-on-a-chip” technology to industry.   In our informative conversation with Professor Fossum, he makes distinctions between solid state CCDs and his more efficient CMOS sensor that would come to dominate the marketplace. To transform high-level science into layman's terms, he uses the analogy of a bucket brigade collecting rain on a football field.   In a similar down-to-earth fashion, we touch on metaphysical issues like wave particle duality, and how this is demonstrated every time light enters a camera and you take a picture with your phone.   Join us to marvel at the wonders of science amid fun food references—from the way deep space radiation degrades CCD chips so they start to act like Swiss cheese, to the synergies between high-level scientific measurements and delicatessen lunch meats, both marks of a creative scientist and visionary educator. Guest: Eric Fossum Above photograph © John Sherman Photography, https://jshermanphoto.com/   Episode Timeline:   2:31: Eric Fossum's beginnings in hands-on science explorations, computer programming, and his love for launching model rockets, plus the role photography has played in his life.   9:26: Fossum's early research in CCD sensor technologies, his interest in trying to marry cameras to artificial intelligence, and his invitation to join NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 1990.   14:00: The differences between CCD and CMOS sensors, and a description of how they work using the analogy of a bucket brigade to collect rain on a football field.   23:35: A history of active pixel sensor devices, an explanation about two kinds of image noise, the metaphysics of photons, plus how the wave particle duality from quantum mechanics is demonstrated every time you take a picture with your phone.   33:10: Fossum's role in the transfer of CMOS sensor technology to US industry, co-founding his company Photobit, and negotiations for licensing the technology with CalTech.   43:23: Episode Break   44:36: The sale of Photobit to Micron, Fossum's move to New Hampshire, consulting work on 3-D imaging sensors for Samsung TVs, and the beginnings of his teaching career at Dartmouth.   50:00: A book chapter on the future of image sensors, and the evolution of this idea to a university project, which led to Fossum co-founding the start-up company, Gigajot, with his PhD students.   52:30: Explaining the difference between the operation of CMOS and Quanta image sensors.   54:03: The resulting applications of CMOS image sensor technology, and the positive use of CMOS image sensors for social justice purposes.   57:22: Fossum's thoughts about STEM education, and connections between academia and applications in the wider world.   1:01:32: Parting thoughts about AI and the ability to authenticate images at the source, plus Fossum's newest award: The Trinity College President's Medal for Science & Innovation.   Guest Bio:   Eric Fossum, a Queen Elizabeth Prize Laureate and recipient of a 2021 Emmy Award, is one of the world's experts in solid-state image sensors. He developed the CMOS active pixel image sensor while working at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Today, this “camera-on-a-chip” technology is used in almost all cell-phone cameras, webcams, many digital-still cameras and in medical imaging, among other applications.   A serial entrepreneur, with a career that has spanned academic and government research, and entrepreneurial leadership, Fossum is currently the John H. Krehbiel Sr. Professor for Emerging Technologies at Dartmouth's Thayer School of Engineering, where he teaches, performs image sensor research, and directs the School's Ph.D. Innovation Program. He also serves as Dartmouth's Vice Provost for Entrepreneurship and Technology Transfer.      Stay Connected: Eric Fossum Website: https://ericfossum.com/ Eric Fossum Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Fossum Eric Fossum at the National Inventor's Hall of Fame: https://www.invent.org/inductees/eric-r-fossum Eric Fossum at Dartmouth Engineering: https://engineering.dartmouth.edu/community/faculty/eric-fossum Eric Fossum bio from the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering: https://qeprize.org/winners/eric-fossum Eric Fossum's 2021 Emmy Award in Tech and Engineering https://www.nhbr.com/dartmouth-professor-wins-emmy-award-for-image-sensor-technology/ Logitech: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/browse/Logitech/ci/13968/N/4232861614
