ablations and cardioverter-defibrillator implantations performed in Portuguese centers&#46; The authors&#44; as well as the successive governing boards of the Portuguese Association for Arrhythmology&#44; Pacing and Electrophysiology &#40;APAPE&#41; and the Portuguese Institute of Cardiac Rhythm &#40;IPRC&#41;&#44; are to be congratulated on their perseverance and dedication in maintaining the registry continuously for 14 years&#46; The data not only reflect the situation in Portugal in terms of the type and volume of activity and geographical distribution of electrophysiology centers&#44; but also enable assessment of the training capability of the country&#44; for both fellowships in cardiology and training in the subspecialty of cardiac electrophysiology&#46; At the same time&#44; data for Portugal from the registry can be included and compared with the figures for other countries published annually by the European Heart Rhythm Association &#40;EHRA&#41; of the European Society of Cardiology &#40;ESC&#41;&#46; Finally&#44; the registry helps to predict and plan for the country&#39;s needs in the area of interventional arrhythmology&#44; and should serve as the basis for certain organizational decisions&#44; particularly those related to the national cardiology referral network&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Analysis of the 2014 data shows a rise in the number of electrophysiology centers to 25 &#40;an increase of eight compared to the previous year&#41;&#44; of which 11 were private and 14 public&#46; A total of 2325 ablation procedures were performed&#44; continuing the growth seen in previous years&#46; Nevertheless&#44; there was marked asymmetry in centers&#8217; volume of activity&#44; since although the mean number of ablations per center was 93&#44; the median was 33&#44; with only seven performing more than 100 procedures and nine performing less than 10&#46; Ablation of atrial fibrillation &#40;AF&#41; accounted for a significant proportion of interventions &#40;around 30&#37; in 2014&#41;&#44; although 80&#37; of such procedures were performed in only four centers&#44; one of which was private&#46; Cardioverter-defibrillator implantations were performed in 30 centers in 2014&#44; four more than in the previous year&#44; although the new centers implanted less than 10 units each&#46; There were a total of 1256 first implantations &#40;of which 38&#46;6&#37; were cardiac resynchronization devices&#41;&#44; an increase of 15&#37; compared to 2013&#46; As with AF ablations&#44; only four centers implanted more than 100 units in 2014 and nine performed less than 10 implantations&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The considerable variation seen in the volume of procedures means that postgraduate training and specialized interventions such as catheter ablation and device implantation are available in only a quarter of cardiac electrophysiology centers in Portugal&#46; Current regulations for cardiology fellowships in Portugal<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> recommend participation in 50 electrophysiology studies&#44;

trainees should achieve autonomy during the two-year training period by performing at least 300 diagnostic studies and 150 ablations&#46; Thus&#44; postgraduate training in interventional arrhythmology is limited to centers with a significant volume of activity&#44; namely three in Lisbon &#40;Hospital de Santa Cruz&#44; Hospital de Santa Maria and Hospital de Santa Marta&#41;&#44; one in Coimbra &#40;Hospitais da Universidade&#44; although with a limited volume of electrophysiology procedures&#41;

approaching target rates in interventional electrophysiology and cardioverter-defibrillator implantations&#46; However&#44; while we are in the vanguard in terms of pacemaker implantation&#44; we lag behind in interventional electrophysiology&#44; including AF ablation&#44; as well as in cardioverter-defibrillator and cardiac resynchronization therapy device implantation&#46; Although the annual rate of first cardioverter-defibrillator implantations in Portugal in 2014 was 120 units per million population&#44; above the European mean of 99&#44; Portugal is in the third quartile &#40;74-166 units per million population&#41; among European countries&#44; along with Spain&#46; With regard to total ablations and AF ablations&#44; the registry shows rates of 232 and 69 per million population&#44; respectively&#44; which again places Portugal in the third quartile in European terms &#40;total ablations 179-321 per million population&#44; and AF ablations 48-108 per million population&#41;&#44; along with Spain and the UK&#46; While improvement in the number of electrophysiological interventions is still desirable&#44; rates in Portugal are in fact now similar to more developed countries&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The registry identifies the centers with the greatest volume of activity in cardiac electrophysiology and which thus form part of the national cardiology referral network<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5&#44;6</span></a>&#58; Hospital de Gaia&#44; Hospitais da Universidade de Coimbra&#44; Hospital de Santa Cruz&#44; Hospital de Santa Maria and Hospital de Santa Marta&#46; Public investment in cardiac electrophysiology should therefore be concentrated in these five centers so as to provide the best conditions for development and specialist training&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I would like to make one last comment on the type and quality of the registry&#46; Maintaining the registry is obviously important&#44; but it would be extremely useful&#44; including from a clinical standpoint&#44; if more detailed information were included in the annual reports&#44; particularly success rates and the incidence and type of complications associated with these interventions&#46; This type of information&#44; even while protecting the identity of particular centers&#44; would be useful for both the medical and scientific community and the patients themselves&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion&#44; maintaining up-to-date and reliable registries like the National Registry on Cardiac Electrophysiology gives an overall picture of the situation in Portugal&#44;

ablations and cardioverter-defibrillator implantations performed in Portuguese centers&#46; The authors&#44; as well as the successive governing boards of the Portuguese Association for Arrhythmology&#44; Pacing and Electrophysiology &#40;APAPE&#41; and the Portuguese Institute of Cardiac Rhythm &#40;IPRC&#41;&#44; are to be congratulated on their perseverance and dedication in maintaining the registry continuously for 14 years&#46; The data not only reflect the situation in Portugal in terms of the type and volume of activity and geographical distribution of electrophysiology centers&#44; but also enable assessment of the training capability of the country&#44; for both fellowships in cardiology and training in the subspecialty of cardiac electrophysiology&#46; At the same time&#44; data for Portugal from the registry can be included and compared with the figures for other countries published annually by the European Heart Rhythm Association &#40;EHRA&#41; of the European Society of Cardiology &#40;ESC&#41;&#46; Finally&#44; the registry helps to predict and plan for the country&#39;s needs in the area of interventional arrhythmology&#44; and should serve as the basis for certain organizational decisions&#44; particularly those related to the national cardiology referral network&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Analysis of the 2014 data shows a rise in the number of electrophysiology centers to 25 &#40;an increase of eight compared to the previous year&#41;&#44; of which 11 were private and 14 public&#46; A total of 2325 ablation procedures were performed&#44; continuing the growth seen in previous years&#46; Nevertheless&#44; there was marked asymmetry in centers&#8217; volume of activity&#44; since although the mean number of ablations per center was 93&#44; the median was 33&#44; with only seven performing more than 100 procedures and nine performing less than 10&#46; Ablation of atrial fibrillation &#40;AF&#41; accounted for a significant proportion of interventions &#40;around 30&#37; in 2014&#41;&#44; although 80&#37; of such procedures were performed in only four centers&#44; one of which was private&#46; Cardioverter-defibrillator implantations were performed in 30 centers in 2014&#44; four more than in the previous year&#44; although the new centers implanted less than 10 units each&#46; There were a total of 1256 first implantations &#40;of which 38&#46;6&#37; were cardiac resynchronization devices&#41;&#44; an increase of 15&#37; compared to 2013&#46; As with AF ablations&#44; only four centers implanted more than 100 units in 2014 and nine performed less than 10 implantations&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The considerable variation seen in the volume of procedures means that postgraduate training and specialized interventions such as catheter ablation and device implantation are available in only a quarter of cardiac electrophysiology centers in Portugal&#46;

trainees should achieve autonomy during the two-year training period by performing at least 300 diagnostic studies and 150 ablations&#46; Thus&#44; postgraduate training in interventional arrhythmology is limited to centers with a significant volume of activity&#44; namely three in Lisbon &#40;Hospital de Santa Cruz&#44; Hospital de Santa Maria and Hospital de Santa Marta&#41;&#44; one in Coimbra &#40;Hospitais da Universidade&#44; although with a limited volume of electrophysiology procedures&#41;

approaching target rates in interventional electrophysiology and cardioverter-defibrillator implantations&#46; However&#44; while we are in the vanguard in terms of pacemaker implantation&#44; we lag behind in interventional electrophysiology&#44; including AF ablation&#44; as well as in cardioverter-defibrillator and cardiac resynchronization therapy device implantation&#46; Although the annual rate of first cardioverter-defibrillator implantations in Portugal in 2014 was 120 units per million population&#44; above the European mean of 99&#44; Portugal is in the third quartile &#40;74-166 units per million population&#41; among European countries&#44; along with Spain&#46; With regard to total ablations and AF ablations&#44; the registry shows rates of 232 and 69 per million population&#44; respectively&#44; which again places Portugal in the third quartile in European terms &#40;total ablations 179-321 per million population&#44; and AF ablations 48-108 per million population&#41;&#44; along with Spain and the UK&#46; While improvement in the number of electrophysiological interventions is still desirable&#44; rates in Portugal are in fact now similar to more developed countries&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The registry identifies the centers with the greatest volume of activity in cardiac electrophysiology and which thus form part of the national cardiology referral network<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5&#44;6</span></a>&#58; Hospital de Gaia&#44; Hospitais da Universidade de Coimbra&#44; Hospital de Santa Cruz&#44; Hospital de Santa Maria and Hospital de Santa Marta&#46; Public investment in cardiac electrophysiology should therefore be concentrated in these five centers so as to provide the best conditions for development and specialist training&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I would like to make one last comment on the type and quality of the registry&#46; Maintaining the registry is obviously important&#44; but it would be extremely useful&#44; including from a clinical standpoint&#44; if more detailed information were included in the annual reports&#44; particularly success rates and the incidence and type of complications associated with these interventions&#46; This type of information&#44; even while protecting the identity of particular centers&#44;
