About
Tomislav Miljak is a leading researcher in interventional cardiac electrophysiology, with a focus on atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation technologies and their procedural safety. His major contributions center on evaluating the clinical outcomes and complications of remote robotic navigation systems for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Miljak’s prospective study on persistent iatrogenic atrial septal defect (iASD) after robotic PVI provided critical insights into the incidence and implications of this complication, while his comparative work on silent cerebral lesions (SCL) demonstrated that robotic ablation does not increase SCL risk relative to manual techniques—a key finding for procedural safety. His research on the learning curve for remote robotic catheter ablation has also helped define the benefits and training requirements for adopting this technology. With multiple highly cited papers (including two with 51 citations each), Miljak’s work has shaped best practices in AF ablation and informed the safe integration of robotic systems into clinical workflows. His studies remain essential reading for electrophysiologists seeking to minimize procedural risks while improving patient outcomes.
