Abstract
BACKGROUND High-power short-duration (HPSD) radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) increases first-pass pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and freedom from atrial arrhythmias while decreasing procedural time. However, the optimal power setting in terms of safety and efficacy has not been determined. OBJECTIVES This study compared the procedural characteristics and clinical outcomes of 50-W vs 40-W during HPSD ablation of paroxysmal AF. METHODS Patients from the REAL-AF prospective multicenter registry (Real-World Experience of Catheter Ablation for Treatment of Symptomatic Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation) undergoing HPSD ablation of paroxysmal AF, either using 50-W or 40-W, were included. The primary efficacy outcome was freedom from all-atrial arrhythmias. The primary safety outcome was the occurrence of any procedural complication at 12 months. Secondary outcomes included procedural characteristics, AF-related symptoms, and the occurrence of transient ischemic attack or stroke at 12 months. RESULTS A total of 383 patients were included. Freedom from all-atrial arrhythmias at 12 months was 80.7% in the 50-W group and 77.3% in the 40-W group (Log-rank P = 0.387). The primary safety outcome occurred in 3.7% of patients in the 50-W group vs 2.8% in the 40-W group (P = 0.646). The 50-W group had a higher rate of first-pass PVI (82.3% vs 76.2%; P = 0.040) as well as shorter procedural (67 minutes [IQR: 54-87.5 minutes] vs 93 minutes [IQR: 80.5-111 minutes]; P < 0.001) and radiofrequency ablation times (15 minutes [IQR: 11.4-20 minutes] vs 27 minutes [IQR: 21.5-34.6 minutes]; P < 0.001) than the 40-W group. CONCLUSIONS There was no significant difference in freedom from all-atrial arrhythmias or procedural safety outcomes between 50-W and 40-W during HPSD ablation of paroxysmal AF. The use of 50-W was associated with a higher rate of first-pass PVI as well as shorter procedural times.

Abstract
Cardiac physiologic pacing (CPP), encompassing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and conduction system pacing (CSP), has emerged as a pacing therapy strategy that may mitigate or prevent the development of heart failure (HF) in patients with ventricular dyssynchrony or pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. This clinical practice guideline is intended to provide guidance on indications for CRT for HF therapy and CPP in patients with pacemaker indications or HF, patient selection, pre-procedure evaluation and preparation, implant procedure management, follow-up evaluation and optimization of CPP response, and use in pediatric populations. Gaps in knowledge, pointing to new directions for future research, are also identified.

Abstract
Remote monitoring is beneficial for the management of patients with cardiovascular implantable electronic devices by impacting morbidity and mortality. With increasing numbers of patients using remote monitoring, keeping up with higher volume of remote monitoring transmissions creates challenges for device clinic staff. This international multidisciplinary document is intended to guide cardiac electrophysiologists, allied professionals, and hospital administrators in managing remote monitoring clinics. This includes guidance for remote monitoring clinic staffing, appropriate clinic workflows, patient education, and alert management. This expert consensus statement also addresses other topics such as communication of transmission results, use of third-party resources, manufacturer responsibilities, and programming concerns. The goal is to provide evidence-based recommendations impacting all aspects of remote monitoring services. Gaps in current knowledge and guidance for future research directions are also identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an alternative to biventricular pacing (BiVp). OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes between LBBAP and BiVp as an initial implant strategy for CRT. METHODS In this prospective multicenter, observational, nonrandomized study, first-time CRT implant recipients with LBBAP or BiVp were included. The primary efficacy outcome was a composite of heart failure (HF)-related hospitalization and all-cause mortality. The primary safety outcomes were acute and long-term complications. Secondary outcomes included postprocedural New York Heart Association functional class and electrocardiographic and echocardiographic parameters. RESULTS A total of 371 patients (median follow-up of 340 days [IQR: 206-477 days]) were included. The primary efficacy outcome occurred in 24.2% in the LBBAP vs 42.4% in the BiVp (HR: 0.621 [95% CI: 0.415-0.93]; P = 0.021) group, driven by a reduction in HF-related hospitalizations (22.6% vs 39.5%; HR: 0.607 [95% CI: 0.397-0.927]; P = 0.021) without significant difference in all-cause mortality (5.5% vs 11.9%; P = 0.19) or differences in long-term complications (LBBAP: 9.4% vs BiVp: 15.2%; P = 0.146). LBBAP resulted in shorter procedural (95 minutes [IQR: 65-120 minutes] vs 129 minutes [IQR: 103-162 minutes]; P < 0.001) and fluoroscopy times (12 minutes [IQR: 7.4-21.1 minutes] vs 21.7 minutes [IQR: 14.3-30 minutes]; P < 0.001), shorter QRS duration (123.7 ± 18 milliseconds vs 149.3 ± 29.1 milliseconds; P < 0.001), and higher postprocedural left ventricular ejection fraction (34.1% ± 12.5% vs 31.4% ± 10.8%; P = 0.041). CONCLUSIONS LBBAP as an initial CRT strategy resulted in a lower risk of HF-related hospitalizations compared to BiVp. A reduction in procedural and fluoroscopy times, shorter paced QRS duration, and improvements in left ventricular ejection fraction compared with BiVp were observed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Capsulectomy is recommended in patients with cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) infection after transvenous lead extraction (TLE) but is time-consuming and requires extensive tissue debridement. In this study, we describe the outcomes of chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) lavage in lieu of capsulectomy for the treatment of CIED infections. METHODS This retrospective study included patients who underwent TLE for CIED-related infections in two institutions in Colombia. In the capsulectomy group, complete capsulectomy was performed after hardware removal. In the CHG group, exhaustive lavage of the generator pocket with 20 cc of CHG at 2% followed by irrigation with approximately 500 cc of normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) was performed. The primary outcomes included reinfection and hematoma formation in the generator pocket. Secondary outcomes included the occurrence of any adverse reaction to chlorhexidine, the need for reintervention, infection-related mortality, and total procedural time. RESULTS A total of 102 patients (mean age 67.2 ± 13 years, 32.4% female) underwent CIED extraction with either total capsulectomy (n = 54) or CHG (n = 48) lavage. Hematoma formation was significantly higher in the capsulectomy group versus the CHG group (13% vs. 0%, p = .014), with no significant differences in the reinfection rate. Capsulectomy was associated with longer procedural time (133.7 ± 78.5 vs. 89.9 ± 51.8 min, p = .002). No adverse reactions to CHG were found. Four patients (4.3%) died from worsening sepsis: three in the capsulectomy group and one in the CHG group (p = .346). CONCLUSIONS In patients with CIED infections, the use of CHG without capsulectomy resulted in a lower risk of hematoma formation and shorter procedural times without an increased risk of reinfection or adverse events associated with CHG use.

Abstract
With the global increase in device implantations, there is a growing need to train physicians to implant pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. Although there are international recommendations for device indications and programming, there is no consensus to date regarding implantation technique. This document is founded on a systematic literature search and review, and on consensus from an international task force. It aims to fill the gap by setting standards for device implantation.
