Heart Rhythm 2012 Hands-on Educational Session
Note: Continuing Medical Education (CME) is not offered during this Hands-On Session.

The Hands-On Session is your opportunity to learn more from the EP industry's educational representatives.

Each year during the Society's Annual Scientific Sessions, the Hands-On session offers a holistic learning experience by featuring a company’s system/device and/or service with its related products. Attendees can obtain immediate answers to questions on the use of these latest technologies from industry experts.

Additional details will be posted in the coming months regarding this opportunity to ask questions regarding the effectiveness of clinically-released devices and systems or those approved for sale in the United States, such as ablation systems, electrophysiology recording systems, capnography systems, device programming equipment and catheters.

For our international attendees, the Hands-On Session also showcases non-FDA devices and systems.
