Hosted by Dr. Niraj Sharma, this weekly podcast distills high-impact cardiovascular and Cardiac Electrophysiology and arrhythmia 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, arrhythmias analysis 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":"2026-09-14T18:19:31.787966+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 (&lt;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."}]}}
