I would like to extend this personal invitation to our 8th International Winter Arrhythmia School. Once again, this year’s program will be based on device and electrophysiological streams, which will be incorporated together for sessions of common interest. Our flagship of blended sponsorships and sessions opened for all will remain in place.

The combined sessions will be focused on innovations in device therapies and ablation approaches, as well as in antiarrhythmic pharmacology which is becoming diversified in recent years. The role of robotics in electrophysiology will be the spotlight of this year’s sessions lead by world experts in the field.

Our focus in the Electrophysiology stream will be based on challenging cases of supraventricular arrhythmia ablations, ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation, and on peri-procedural care in Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology. We deploy world class faculty to engage discussions and expect, as always, fierce educational argument.

In the device stream, our focus will be on handling challenging tachy- and brady-programming in small classes and peer-to-peer teaching sessions. These sessions will be headed by physicians and manufacturer’s experts.

This eventful program will be taking place at the Fairmont Mont Tremblant, Quebec. The event is officially bilingual for the third year in a row, with instant translations from English to French and plenty of accents.

Last year we had more than 175 people participating in the event. Due to limited space last year, I strongly encourage you to register early. 

Sincerely,

Eugene Crystal, MD
Chairman of the Symposium
Director, Arrhythmia Services

The 7th International Winter Arrhythmia School was co-sponsored by the Heart Rhythm Society.

Similar co-sponsorship is being sought for the 8th Winter Arrhythmia School.

The 7th International Winter Arrhythmia School event was an Accredited Group Learning Activity (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of the Certification program of The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. It was approved by the University of Toronto.

The Continuing Education Office, Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto designated the 7th International Winter Arrhythmia School an education activity for a maximum of 17.5 Category 1 Credits towards the AMA Physician's Recognition Award. As a result of a reciprocal agreement between the EACCME and the AMA, European registrants claimed AMA Category 1 as equivalent.

Similar accreditation is being sought for the 7th Winter Arrhythmia School.
