Live Case Presentations

Thursday, May 5 and Friday, May 6, South Building of the Moscone Center

The Heart Rhythm Society’s popular live case sessions provide scientific session attendees with a unique opportunity to observe real time case-procedures conducted by the world’s leading electrophysiology clinicians. Each live case session transmits two to three case procedures. These interactive sessions are facilitated by an expert panel of physicians who are not only masters of their craft but also educators who debate and provide multiple strategies and solutions for managing VT/VF ablation and AF ablation procedures. These sessions are an essential component of the Heart Rhythm Society's annual scientific session and provide a real time, case-based opportunity for enhanced comprehension of performance of complex ablations.
