Piotr Futima

In this engaging discussion, Piotr Futima, a cardiac electrophysiologist from Poland, explores innovative approaches to ablate atrial fibrillation (AF). He reveals how pandemic constraints sparked groundbreaking techniques using a single catheter for right atrial ablation, targeting ganglionated plexi without anesthesia. They delve into vagally mediated AF, explaining its link to high vagal tone in younger patients. The conversation raises intriguing questions about the unknown mechanisms of pulmonary vein isolation and the importance of precise patient selection for effective treatment.
