32nd Annual Cardiac Arrhythmias Conference

An Interactive Update for Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, & Cardiogy
To help healthcare professionals in recognizing, evaluating and treating common heart rhythm problems .Experts in Cardiology and Cardiac Electrophysiology will offer lectures and panel led question and answer sessions, along with interactive case studies.

2. Learning Objectives

Evaluate complex arrhythmias and wide QRS complex tachycardias using advanced diagnostic techniques and case-based clinical strategies.

Assess the role of advanced imaging, cardiovascular genetics, and electrophysiology in diagnosing and managing arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies and complete heart block.

Implement current evidence-based protocols for anticoagulation and rate versus rhythm control in patients with new-onset and post-operative atrial fibrillation.

Utilize data from implantable cardiac devices to optimize patient care and determine appropriate candidates for physiologic pacing and novel device therapies.

Apply electrophysiological principles to clinical decision-making regarding PVC intervention, bradycardia evaluation, and heart failure management.
