Introduction

The 8^th Annual International Physiology of Pacing Symposium is a gathering of world-renowned faculty who delve into the latest methods and strategies for optimizing the physiological pacing of the heart. This one-day CME-accredited symposium will focus on cutting-edge conduction system pacing (CSP) approaches, including His-bundle Pacing (HBP), left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), and left ventricular septal pacing (LVSP). These evolving pacing modalities hold immense potential to achieve electrical excitation of the heart through the normal specialized conduction system. By participating in the symposium, clinicians will not only gain a comprehensive understanding of the history and relevant anatomy of the conduction system, particularly about HBP/LBBAP/LVSP, but also acquire practical knowledge that can be immediately applied in their clinical practice.  The program will also provide an overview of established clinical applications and ongoing clinical trials, equipping clinicians with the latest advancements in the field and empowering them to enhance their patient care.

Two Attendance Options

The Symposium offers two attendance options to accommodate your preferences and needs. You're able to attend in person at the Crystal Gateway Marriott or virtually via a real-time live stream. Both onsite and virtual attendees are eligible to claim CME credits.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this educational activity, participants will be able to:

• Discuss the evolving role of conduction system pacing (CSP) for standard permanent pacing and cardiac resynchronization.
• Describe challenges and methods for implantation technique of permanent His-bundle pacing (HBP), left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), and left ventricular septal pacing (LVSP).
• Review the relationship between electrical stimulation of the heart and the mechanics of myocardial contraction.
• Review the history and recent advances of CSP and emerging clinical situations and applications in patients with narrow and wide QRS morphology.
• Review the anatomy of the membranous septum conduction system concerning the right atrium, tricuspid valve, and ventricular septum.
• Summarize strategies and clinical evidence for the various approaches to achieve cardiac resynchronization, including leadless technology, multisite pacing, and left ventricular (LV) endocardial pacing.
• Outline approaches to complications during implant procedures for CSP.
• Discuss approaches for remote monitoring and optimization of CSP and CRT systems. 

Target Audience

This educational activity is designed for electrophysiologists, general cardiologists, electrophysiology fellows in training, and allied healthcare professionals.

Accreditation

MediaSphere Medical and Ciné-Med have planned and implemented this activity to improve patient care. Ciné-Med is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.

Ciné-Med designates this educational activity for a maximum of 9.5 AMA PRA CATEGORY 1 Credit(s)™.
Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
