MTRJ75 Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 https://www.jacc.org/doi/full/10.1016/j.jacc.2022.04.019 I'll admit to only having skimmed through this study, but it seems like there are some new approaches in treating IST, including a possible hybrid ablation. Also more evidence that Ivabradine works better than traditional beta blockers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Rules me out for the most part. I don't go tacky while resting unless my bp tanks and i try to get up. Nevertheless this is a good read. May help someone out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason_X Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 Thank you for posting this. I've had fairly good results with Ivabradine. I'm in the US and my insurance won't cover it despite strong objections from my heart doctor. It's insanely expensive, so my doctor works with me so that I can get it from a Canadian pharmacy for one tenth the cost. I'm not sure, but I think that disrupts sleep slightly, but it's MUCH better than beta blockers. I have never heard of hybrid ablation until now. My heart doctor warned me to not let anyone talk me into getting ablation. That was a few years ago, and I don't know if he considered hybrid ablation.
