About
Dr. Eduardo Celentano is a pioneering cardiac electrophysiologist whose research centers on advanced interventional strategies for complex arrhythmias, particularly persistent and long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAF/LSPAF). His major contribution lies in advancing robotic-enhanced hybrid ablation (RE-HA), a minimally invasive technique combining epicardial and endocardial approaches. Dr. Celentano’s work has been instrumental in demonstrating the feasibility and efficacy of this convergent procedure, including the first European experience with robotic-assisted epicardial hybrid ablation and left atrial appendage closure. He has also identified critical biophysical predictors of successful ablation, such as local epicardial lesion efficacy and the role of functional conduction gaps and atrial fibrosis in early arrhythmia recurrence. His most cited paper (2024, 12 citations) established a foundational protocol for this emerging field. By systematically analyzing post-ablation gaps and tissue characteristics, Dr. Celentano provides actionable insights to improve long-term outcomes for patients with challenging atrial fibrillation. His research bridges surgical precision and electrophysiological mapping, positioning him as a key innovator in hybrid arrhythmia management.
