Fantastic talk by Sam Turnbull on the contemporary era of high density mapping and intracardiac echo at APHRS2024 ! ICE for substrate and anatomy in VT ablation clearly becoming the norm @SaurabhkumarEp Kasun De Silva Westmead Applied Research Centre #WARC_USYD

🧵 ICDs can fail to treat VT/VF—even when functioning normally. In a 5-year MAUDE review (2019–2023), 854 such failures were found: 🔹 Deaths: 96 (11%); Injuries: 585 (69%): Malfunctions: 173 (20%) 📈 Reports tripled from 2019 → 2023. 🤔 Causes - Misclassification as SVT/AF

#EPeeps check out our most recent paper 👇 We applied signal processing & machine learning to ventricular intracardiac electrograms to predict scar location/depth. Lets look beyond voltage to “hidden” electrogram features to better identify substrate Westmead Applied Research Centre #WARC_USYD

#Epeeps check out our latest publication led by Dr K Nanthakumar describing using the morphology of the multipolar electrogram in addition to traditional bipolar and unipolar activation to surmise intramural activation - a step towards panoramic “electro-tomographic mapping.”
