The Electrophysiology in the West conference provides a comprehensive overview of the science and therapy of heart rhythm disorders, provided by world-renowned experts in a concise and exciting format. Plenary sessions will focus on the expanding role of digital health, wearables and other disruptive technologies in arrhythmia management. Rapid fire sessions including audience participation will include in depth exploration of new advances in the mechanisms of cardiac fibrillation and inherited arrhythmias. Divided into three parallel tracks, the symposium is designed to meet individual learner needs to improve their base of knowledge and to promote effective management of cardiac arrhythmia by all members of the healthcare team.
