    Following the first episode of “Salud (t) Plus”, the barnaclínic+ podcast that launched the format with the real-life experience of Ares Teixidó, who shared how she has learned to live with type 1 diabetes, this new episode focuses on electroporation, an innovative treatment for atrial fibrillation, one of the most common cardiac arrhythmias. Through a patient’s testimony and the medical team’s experience, the podcast brings this new ablation technique closer and explores its real impact on quality of life. The protagonist of the episode is Montserrat Bel, a barnaclínic+ patient, who explains first-hand how she has lived for years with episodes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, the constant fear caused by the unpredictability of symptoms, and the emotional and physical impact this has had on her daily life. She is joined in this conversation by Dr. Ivo Roca and Dr. Andreu Porta, specialists in Cardiology at barnaclínic+, who clearly explain what electroporation is and its role as an alternative to conventional ablation techniques.
