In this episode, Dr Imdad Ahmed discusses the strategy for same-day discharge after intravenous sotalol loading in patients with atrial fibrillation.

In this episode of The EP Edit, we’re joined by Dr. Arash Aryana to discuss what it really takes to build an ambulatory surgery center (ASC)-based ablation program, why adoption has been slower than expected, and what needs to happen next to scale this model responsibly.

In this episode, Edward P. Gerstenfeld, MD, MS, and Jason Andrade, MD, explore practical strategies for managing atrial fibrillation (AF), from antiarrhythmic drug therapy to personalized rate and rhythm control approaches. The discussion highlights how to match the right therapy to the right patient, optimize safety, and apply evidence-based strategies in real-world practice.

In this episode, Qussay Marashly, MD, and Peter Hanna, MD, PhD, explore the evolving landscape of atrial fibrillation (AF) care. Dr. Marashly reviews the epidemiology and burden of AF and discusses how artificial intelligence is transforming detection, risk prediction, and treatment selection. Dr. Hanna focuses on practical diagnosis and initial management, including ECG confirmation, stroke risk assessment, and guideline-directed care.

In this interview, we speak with Dr Raymond Scharf from the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles to discuss his presentation from the recent Virtual Lead Extraction Experts Meeting titled, "When Not to Extract: Navigating Clinical and Ethical Boundaries."

In this episode of The EP Edit podcast, 2 leading voices in electrophysiology (EP) and interventional cardiology (IC), Nassir Marrouche, MD, and Karim Al-Azizi, MD, discuss the future of imaging ownership, the impact of pivotal trials like OPTION and CHAMPION, and how technologies such as NUVISION NAV™ Ultrasound Catheter (Johnson & Johnson MedTech) 4-dimensional (4D) intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) are reshaping operator confidence, procedural efficiency, and clinical outcomes for structural heart procedures like left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) and tricuspid valve interventions.

EP Lab Digest speaks with Dr Eli Friedman, director of sports cardiology at the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai, about the launch of the institute’s new Sports Cardiology Program.

In this episode of The EP Edit, we're highlighting the EP program at Inova Schar Heart and Vascular in Falls Church, Virginia. We sat down with Jordan Hamilton, BSN, RN, RCES; Cameron R Mulloy, RN, BSN, CCRN, RCES; and Mike Corley, RN to uncover what makes their EP lab unique. 

The 2025 European Society of Cardiology Clinical Consensus Statement on Mental Health and Cardiovascular Disease calls for a rethinking of how cardiovascular care and mental health care intersect. To explore the implications for arrhythmia care, EP Lab Digest sat down with Professor Christi Deaton, one of the co-chairs of the consensus statement, to discuss the concept of the “Psycho-Cardio” team, the management of severe mental illness, and the pressing gaps that remain.

In this episode of The EP Edit podcast, we speak with Olivia Gilbert, MD, MSc, FACC, about the new ACC Concise Clinical Guidance report on medical weight management for optimizing cardiovascular health.
