Argentina - Resources, Power, Economy: Argentine industry is well served by the country’s abundance of energy resources. By the late 20th century the country was self-sufficient in fossil fuels and hydroelectric generation, and it had become a petroleum exporter. Oil deposits are concentrated mainly in the Northwest and in Patagonia. The basin around the Patagonian port of Comodoro Rivadavia is estimated to hold some two-thirds of the country’s onshore reserves. Other deposits are located in Jujuy and Salta provinces, in Mendoza and Neuquén provinces, and at the tip of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego. The main natural gas fields are also in the Northwest, near

1 INTRODUCTION Femoral access site complications remain the most common adverse event following catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF).1-3 Key factors in reducing these complications include ultrasound-guided access, adequate periprocedural anticoagulation management, and femoral venous hemostasis.4, 5 Until recently, the latter has traditionally been achieved using manual compression.

AbstractDefining post-infarct ventricular arrhythmic substrate is challenging with voltage mapping alone, though may be improved in combination with an activation map. Omnipolar Technology on the EnSite X system displays activation as vectors that can be superimposed onto a voltage map. To optimise voltage map settings during ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation, adjusting them dynamically using Omnipolar vectors. Consecutive patients undergoing substrate mapping were retrospectively studied.
