About this episode
Dr. Francis Marchlinski discusses a novel pulsed field ablation strategy for treating ventricular tachycardia in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
In this podcast, Francis Marchlinski, MD, Deputy Editor of JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology, discusses a novel pulsed field ablation–based endocardial strategy for ventricular tachycardia in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. The paper presents an early consecutive experience demonstrating the feasibility, acute effectiveness, and safety of PFA for VT without the need for epicardial access. Dr. Marchlinski highlights the clinical implications of this approach and how tissue-selective, nonthermal energy may expand treatment options for this challenging patient population.
