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 16: 11 New EP Trials on AF Ablation, SVT, Anticoagulation, PFA Safety, VT Pacing, and OHCA","slug":"ep-edge-journal-watch-issue-16-11-new-ep-trials-on-af-ablation-svt-anticoagulation-pfa-safety-vt-pacing-and-ohca","published_at":"2026-03-23T09:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379/ep-edge-journal-watch-issue-16-11-new-ep-trials-on-af-ablation-svt-anticoagulation-pfa-safety-vt-pacing-and-ohca","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ep-edge-journal-watch-7561379","url":"https://share.transistor.fm/s/846b7bfb","audio_url":"https://media.transistor.fm/846b7bfb/c3bd0d88.mp3","summary":"In this episode of EP Edge Journal Watch , Dr. Sharma reviews 11 important new studies shaping modern cardiac electrophysiology, arrhythmia care, and cardiovascular risk management. This March 2026 issue covers intravenous amiodarone in preexcited atrial fibrillation , the NURSECAT-AF randomized trial of nurse-led care after AF ablation , left bundle branch area antitachycardia pacing vs right ventricular ATP , varenicline for ventricular ectopy after myocardial infarction , and the first clinical experience with reversible electroporation mapping in atrial flutter . The episode also examines abelacimab vs rivaroxaban in older patients with atrial fibrillation from AZALEA-TIMI 71 , device-assisted vs standard Valsalva for supraventricular tachycardia , the first reported case of severe pulmonary vein stenosis after pulsed field ablation , and the COBRRA trial comparing apixaban vs rivaroxaban bleeding risk in acute venous thromboembolism . Rounding out the issue are a nationwide analysis of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest on the first weekday after holidays and why the 2026 ACC/AHA multisociety dyslipidemia guideline matters directly to EP clinicians. This is a practical, evidence-focused review of where electrophysiology is heading: smarter AF care pathways, safer anticoagulation, better mapping, more physiologic pacing, improved SVT management, and a broader understanding of sudden cardiac risk .
