In this episode of EP Edge™ Journal Watch Issue 20, Dr. Sharma reviews some of the most clinically relevant new developments in cardiac electrophysiology, with a sharp focus on atrial fibrillation screening, pulsed field ablation expansion, device therapy trade-offs, and post-ablation anticoagulation strategy. This issue examines how Apple Watch–based atrial fibrillation detection performed in a randomized trial, and whether wearable screening becomes truly useful only when paired with a real adjudication workflow. It also reviews AI-enabled ECG risk models for AF screening, highlighting how precision screening may outperform broad age-based approaches by identifying the patients most likely to b...
