The TRAVERSE trial shows reduced risk of acute brain lesions with transeptal approach in patients undergoing left ventricular catheter ablation, compared to a retrograde aortic approach. ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…

April 20th , a cannabis celebration day, is associated with more healthcare encounters for #AFib, suggesting acute cannabis may trigger #AFib Jean Jacques Noubiap Greg Marcus doi.org/10.1161/CIRCEP…

Commentary on important paper by Greg Marcus ! Figure adapted from Nature illustrating mechanisms of cerebral embolism in catheter ablation. #EPeeps 🙏 ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… nature.com/articles/s4156…

Congratulations to the authors! Nice to see this data published. Since 2002 we have used trans aortic approach only for specific cases (e.g outflow, mechanical mitral valve). Entering the LV, the way blood enters it, seems to be the way to go!

As 420 approaches, party safe—your heart might be partying too, but not in a good way. Data reported by Dr. Greg Marcus & team shows a spike in health care encounters for #AFib on 4/20. Cannabis may trigger episodes—celebrate wisely! UCSF Cardiology ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…

A pleasure to learn from you and to get to sit down and chat. Please keep up the important work, and I hope we can find areas for fruitful collaboration.

The EP section at Brigham and Women's Hospital is hiring! This is a rare opportunity for an academic electrophysiologist to join one of the top groups in the country. Link to NEJM advertisement: bit.ly/nejm_bwh_ep

Coffee anyone? State-of-the-art-review from European Society of Cardiology Journals PREDOMINATELY OBSERVATIONAL data suggest lower risks of mortality, #stroke, #afib, #CAD, #heartfailure; higher risk of #hyperlipemia (especially unfiltered); A RANDOMIZED TRIAL showed more #PVCs. Congrats and thanks to

Visual auras attributed to #migraines after #catheter ablation procedures are NOT due to the transseptal (as shown in a randomized trial of transseptal v not) BUT ARE associated with acute brain emboli in the visual cortex. Strong work by first author and now UCSF Cardiology EP
