In this episode of “ECG Making Waves, hosted by Dr. Anthony Kashou with guest Dr. Christopher DeSimone, the focus is on understanding the evolution of ablation technology, particularly why the field has shifted toward pulsed field ablation. The conversation explores the key differences between traditional thermal ablation methods and pulsed field ablation, highlighting mechanisms, safety profiles, and clinical advantages. Additionally, it provides insight into what patients and clinicians can expect on the day of an ablation procedure, as well as important considerations for post-procedure follow-up and recovery.

Topics Discussed:
• What is pulsed field ablation?
• What are some of the differences between risks seen with thermal ablation vs. those seen with pulsed field ablation?
• How does efficiency of the procedure or speed of the procedure change what you do for ablation?
