April 25, 2025 — The annual Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) meeting, SCAI 2025 Scientific Sessions, will kick off May 1, 2025, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. Nearly 2,000 scientists, researchers, innovators, and clinicians are expected to attend to discuss advances in the field of interventional cardiology and endovascular medicine. 

April 25, 2025 – Findings from two late-breaking clinical trials demonstrate the safety and efficacy of left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), adding to the growing body of evidence supporting new pacing methods. Researchers presented these findings as late-breaking clinical science during Heart Rhythm 2025.

April 24, 2025 – The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) has unveiled new research that underscores the critical role of artificial intelligence (AI) in improving procedural safety in cardiac electrophysiology (EP), demonstrating how intelligent, real-time decision support can help mitigate risks and improve clinical confidence in complex interventions. Researchers presented these findings at Heart Rhythm 2025 in San Diego, California. 

April 23, 2025 – The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) has released a framework outlining criteria for establishing an Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Center of Excellence (CoE) and key operational standards to provide multidisciplinary care for AF patients.

April 24, 2025 – The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC) have released a scientific statement on new guiding principles for Same-Day Discharge (SDD) for patients undergoing intracardiac catheter ablation procedures. This document draws on global clinical data and real-world evidence to evaluate the impact of a cardiac ablation SDD strategy on patient safety, access, operational efficiencies, and healthcare costs.

April 22, 2025 — Research teams from Augusta University, Massachusetts General Hospital and The Ohio State University will lead a $15 million project dedicated to studying the various ways that risk factors for cardiovascular and kidney diseases impact women.

April 22, 2025 — Mount Sinai researchers studying hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have calibrated an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to quickly and more specifically identify patients with the condition and flag them as high risk for greater attention during doctor’s appointments.

The algorithm, known as Viz HCM, had previously been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the detection of HCM on an electrocardiogram (ECG). The Mount Sinai study, published April 22 in the journal NEJM AI, assigns numeric probabilities to the algorithm’s findings.

April 21, 2025 — Stereotaxis, a provider of surgical robotics for minimally invasive endovascular intervention, will host a live demonstration of the GenesisX Robotic System at this year’s Heart Rhythm Symposium (HRS), taking place April 24-27 in San Diego, CA.

This marks the first live, public demonstration of GenesisX, offering a glimpse into the robot’s clinical capabilities and “weekend” installation.

April 17, 2025 — Adults younger than 50 years of age had more than double the risk of having a stroke from migraine or other nontraditional stroke risk factors rather than traditional risks such as high blood pressure, according to research published in Stroke, the peer-reviewed scientific journal of the American Stroke Association, a division of the American Heart Association.

April 16, 2025 — An artificial intelligence (AI) program trained to review images from a common medical test can detect early signs of tricuspid heart valve disease and may help doctors diagnose and treat patients sooner, according to research from the
