Hosted by Dr. Niraj Sharma, this bi-weekly podcast distills high-impact cardiovascular and EP research into clear, clinically meaningful insights. Each episode goes beyond headlines and abstracts to uncover what new studies actually mean for patient care, decision-making, and the future of electrophysiology. What EP Edge Journal Watch stands for: Evidence-based practice Precision electrophysiology A forward-thinking, edge-driven approach to how we interpret and apply data in real-world clinical settings. Whether you’re an electrophysiologist, cardiologist, researcher, trainee, or allied health professional, EP Edge Journal Watch brings you the signal — not the noise. Expect sharp summaries, thoughtful commentary, and practical takeaways designed for the busy clinician who wants to stay ahead of the curve","last_synced_at":"2026-07-20T20:18:25.367003+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379"},"episode":{"title":"EP Edge Journal Watch Issue 13 (March 2026): Ultrashort AF, ILR Accuracy, Semaglutide + Ablation, PADIT, PCOS, LBBAP and Next-Gen nanosecond PFA (SCENA-AF)","slug":"ep-edge-journal-watch-issue-13-march-2026-ultrashort-af-ilr-accuracy-semaglutide-ablation-padit-pcos-lbbap-and-next-gen-nanosecond-pfa-scena-af","published_at":"2026-03-02T10:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379/ep-edge-journal-watch-issue-13-march-2026-ultrashort-af-ilr-accuracy-semaglutide-ablation-padit-pcos-lbbap-and-next-gen-nanosecond-pfa-scena-af","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379","url":"https://share.transistor.fm/s/ef47d6a8","audio_url":"https://media.transistor.fm/ef47d6a8/18e8543f.mp3","summary":"EP Edge Journal Watch — Issue 13 (March 2026) explores a core 2026 EP problem: signal detection (wearables, patches, ILRs) and energy delivery (next-gen PFA) are advancing faster than the clinical rules we use to interpret risk and outcomes . In this episode, Dr. Niraj Sharma breaks down what’s clinically actionable, what’s methodologically fragile, and what should change practice now versus what needs better evidence. Topics covered (high-level): Ultrashort atrial arrhythmias (<30 seconds) and what they may imply on continuous monitoring Implantable loop recorder (ILR) “AF alerts” and why vendor performance is not interchangeable Semaglutide (GLP-1) and AF ablation in obesity: metabolic modulation as an EP strategy, not an afterthought Nanosecond pulsed field ablation (nsPFA) for paroxysmal AF ( SCENA-AF ) and what it means for workflow (including anesthesia strategy) A high-stakes coronary spasm signal in a population-enriched cohort LBBAP perforation detection: interpreting iEGMs as phenotype, not just amplitude PADIT score validation by infection subtype—toward phenotype-aware prevention PCOS and long-term arrhythmia risk: a women’s cardiovascular EP domain hiding in plain sight Read the full newsletter (graphics + references): epedge.substack.com Subscribe on LinkedIn (EP Edge Journal Watch): https://lnkd.in/e-Wa4diC Subscribe to EP Edge (Monthly Deep Dives): https://lnkd.in/ep3NdZUz Subscribe Substack: epedge.substack.com","meta_description":"EP Edge Journal Watch — Issue 13 (March 2026) explores a core 2026 EP problem: signal detection (wearables, patches, ILRs) and energy delivery (next-gen P…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1410,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379/episodes/ep-edge-journal-watch-issue-13-march-2026-ultrashort-af-ilr-accuracy-semaglutide-ablation-padit-pcos-lbbap-and-next-gen-nanosecond-pfa-scena-af/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379/ep-edge-journal-watch-issue-13-march-2026-ultrashort-af-ilr-accuracy-semaglutide-ablation-padit-pcos-lbbap-and-next-gen-nanosecond-pfa-scena-af.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
