Timeline and Comparison of Pulsed Field Ablation Systems Available in the United States
06/01/2026
Bradley P. Knight, MD, FACC, FHRS
With additional PFA systems still in development, it will be interesting to see how the field continues to evolve and how emerging technologies differentiate themselves through performance, workflow, or cost considerations.

Strategies to Improve Electrophysiology Clinic Access
05/01/2026
Bradley P. Knight, MD, FACC, FHRS
It is taking too long for patients with serious heart rhythm problems to be seen in clinic. Perhaps the most effective intervention is better triage by a health care professional so those with heart rhythm disorders can access care sooner.

Is a Mapping System Needed for Pulsed Field Ablation Cases?
04/01/2026
Bradley P. Knight, MD, FACC, FHRS
To evaluate whether a mapping system is necessary for PFA, a group in Basel, Switzerland, studied the role of 3D electroanatomic mapping on procedural characteristics and outcomes in patients undergoing PFA for AF.

What is the Source of Migraines After Left-Sided Ablation Procedures?
02/01/2026
Bradley P. Knight, MD, FACC, FHRS
Visual auras after AF ablation—migraine or warning sign? New trial data show up to 15% of patients experience visual auras after left-sided ablation, highlighting the need to reduce cerebral embolic risk and recognize “silent” emboli.
