List of emergent/semi-urgent electrophysiology procedures

A. Devices	B. Catheter ablation
- Pacemaker implant for high-degree or complete atrioventricular block	- Electrical storm refractory to medical therapy
- Pacemaker implant for symptomatic sinus bradycardia or sinus pauses	- Incessant VT refractory to medical therapy.
- Secondary prevention ICD implantation	- Recurrent VT requiring frequent hospitalizations or ICD therapies despite medical therapy
- Device extraction in patients with CIED infection associated with bacteremia or sepsis	- Incessant AF/flutter associated with significant symptoms despite medical therapy
- Lead repositioning or replacement due to lead dysfunction in pacing-dependent patients or in case of inappropriate ICD shocks	- Paroxysmal AF/flutter requiring frequent hospitalizations
- Generator replacement of devices with an estimated longevity ≤ 1 month in pacing-dependent patients, secondary prevention ICDs, or CRT devices	- Incessant SVT associated with significant symptoms despite medical therapy
	- Recurrent SVT requiring frequent hospitalizations despite medical therapy.
	- Preexcited AF or Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome with syncope of suspected arrhythmic etiology
