Should we add posterior wall isolation during pulsed field ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation? How durable are pulmonary vein isolation and additional atrial lines? Can a defibrillation lead placed in the left bundle branch area provide reliable early performance while simplifying device therapy? Join Dr. Sharma for EP Edge® Journal Watch Issue 39, October 2026. We examine four papers in depth: PIFPAF-PFA, pulmonary vein isolation durability across pulsed field systems, invasive remapping of atrial lesion sets with a dual-energy lattice-tip catheter, and the LEADR LBBAP defibrillation lead study. We then give brief takeaways from twenty additional articles spanning AF a...
