Late-Breaking Clinical Trials
The Heart Rhythm Society recognizes that some exciting and rapidly evolving research may not be concluded in time for the December 11, 2009 abstract submission deadline. In an effort to highlight timely and novel work at Heart Rhythm 2010, the Scientific Sessions Program Committee developed a peer-reviewed session of late-breaking trials that allows for later submission and more rapid presentation. The deadline will be March 16.
