Overview

Frederic Sacher is affiliated with the University of Bordeaux in France and specializes in medical research with a strong focus on cardiology and cardiovascular medicine. Their scholarly output encompasses a substantial body of work across several related subfields, reflecting extensive engagement with cardiology, electrophysiology, imaging, molecular biology, epidemiology, and surgery.

Sacher's research primarily explores cardiac arrhythmias and treatments, cardiac electrophysiology and arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation management and outcomes, cardiac pacing and defibrillation studies, cardiovascular effects of exercise, ECG monitoring and analysis, and ion channel regulation and function.

Their notable recent publications include the following:

  • 2024 European Heart Rhythm Association/Heart Rhythm Society/Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society/Latin American Heart Rhythm Society expert consensus statement on catheter and surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation (2024, EP Europace)
  • Pulsed field ablation selectively spares the oesophagus during pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation (2021, EP Europace)
  • Marshall bundle elimination, Pulmonary vein isolation, and Line completion for ANatomical ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation (Marshall-PLAN): Prospective, single-center study (2020, Heart Rhythm)
  • Does Timing of Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation Affect Prognosis in Patients With an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator? Results From the Multicenter Randomized PARTITA Trial (2022, Circulation)
  • Epicardial course of the septopulmonary bundle: Anatomical considerations and clinical implications for roof line completion (2020, Heart Rhythm)

Sacher frequently collaborates with several prominent researchers in their field, including Pierre Jaḯs, Josselin Duchâteau, Mélèze Hocini, Michel Haïssaguerre, and Nicolas Derval.

The primary venues where Sacher's research is published reflect their concentration in cardiology and electrophysiology, with frequent contributions to journals such as:

  • Heart Rhythm
  • EP Europace
  • Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology
  • JACC. Clinical Electrophysiology
  • Circulation Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology

With over 500 publications in medicine, and nearly 500 focused on cardiology and cardiovascular medicine, Sacher's academic efforts reveal a sustained commitment to advancing the understanding and treatment of heart rhythm disorders.
