Conclusions
• EP studies and ablations are usually straightforward but
not always, pathways are associated with sudden death
• Map extensively and don’t be afraid to remap where you
have been – chipping away at multiple pathways/fans
• AF takes up a lot of training time but pathways can be very
challenging
• GA cases can be a real help, be assertive if necessary.
• Support to a new consultant is crucial – don’t be afraid to
ask for help if necessary during cases, particularly in the
first few years
– Use the contacts you make during your training
– Very grateful to both my colleagues
