Dear Friends,
Welcome to the May 2024 issue of my newsletter! Here, you will find links to everything I’ve written, including interviews, speaking engagements, etc., all aimed at helping you optimize for normal sinus rhythm and longevity.
As I frequently receive inquiries from my patients regarding the recently approved pulsed field ablation technology for treating atrial fibrillation (AFib) in the US, I wanted to provide a brief update. I've now treated over 100 AFib patients with this innovative approach and have observed significantly improved outcomes.
It's worth mentioning that overall the recovery period has been notably easier and faster in comparison to radiofrequency catheter ablations. Remarkably, nearly all of my patients have been able to return home on the same day as their procedure. This is particularly impressive given that many of these patients are in their eighties!
Surprisingly, even patients who did not respond well to the older technology have mostly shown very positive outcomes with pulsed field ablation. The results thus far have far surpassed my initial expectations from when I first discussed this AFib treatment approach in my newsletter eight months ago.
Topics in this issue include:

Wishing you another fabulous month,
John
