Heart Rhythm Society (HRS)

The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) is the primary U.S. medical society for electrophysiology (EP). The organization promotes education and advocacy for cardiac arrhythmia professionals and patients, including setting policy guidelines and offering expert consensus.

How to perform fluoroscopy-free PFA ablation procedures 

Pulsed field ablation is a hot new technology in electrophysiology, but its use of fluoroscopy is associated with certain challenges.

HRS president Jodie Hurwitz, MD, discusses trends in electrophysiology at the 2024 HRS meeting.

Exploring the biggest trends at HRS 2024

Heart Rhythm Society President Jodie Hurwitz, MD, told Cardiovascular Business that pulsed field ablation was one of the hottest topics at Heart Rhythm 2024. It may be early, she said, but the technology is already making an impact. 

The late-breaking U.S. multicenter admIRE clinical trial at the Heart Rhythm Society 2024 meeting, showed positive data on the long-term safety and effectiveness of the the Biosense Webster Varipulse pulsed field ablation (PFA) system in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. #HRS #HRS2024 #PFA
