This webinar is specifically designed for healthcare providers who care for patients with atrial fibrillation. The session will focus on the progression of Afib from paroxysmal to long-standing persistent and the impact it has on longevity, mortality, and heart failure implications. The faculty will cover various topics to include identification of Afib, treatment options, preventive measures, and new clinical trials. Attendees will also participate in discussions through the chat feature.
Join leading experts for an in-depth discussion on the evolving management of aortic regurgitation, with a focus on contemporary surgical and transcatheter treatment strategies. This webinar will explore the latest advances in aortic valve repair, valve-sparing root replacement, and transcatheter therapies, highlighting patient selection, technical considerations, and emerging evidence. Gain practical insights into current challenges and future directions shaping the care of patients with aortic regurgitation.
The latest techniques and management strategies in cardiovascular and thoracic critical care and enhanced recovery after surgery for the entire care team.
A world-class, international event that will explore the latest developments and best practices in coronary artery disease, congenital heart disease, thoracic aortic disease, atrial fibrillation, and the surgical management of heart failure
The premier annual event in cardiothoracic surgery, unveiling never-before-seen science, techniques, and technology, and creating a forum to build lasting connections with colleagues.
Cardiothoracic surgeons and trainees who are underrepresented in medicine (URiM) will discuss challenges and successes they’ve experienced throughout their careers. Additionally, the panel will share what they have learned from these experiences and how to apply those lessons toward supporting other surgeons from underrepresented groups.
The STS Leadership Institute helps members in their first 15 years of practice to develop the skills necessary to lead teams in and out of the OR, strategize personal and professional goals, negotiate a career path, and influence change in the workplace.
Diversity in the physician workforce is a key component of delivering the best care to our increasingly heterogeneous patient population. The experience of Asians in cardiothoracic surgery is not well known. With a paucity of published evidence, the webinar panel will introduce the topic through the lived experience of Asians in the specialty. The discussion will explore:
Aortic regurgitation is an undertreated condition, often because patients are not referred in a timely fashion for intervention. During this STS webinar, attendees will hear from an expert panel on the evidence base for timing of intervention as well as evolving treatment options. Conventional surgical aortic valve repair can be considered alongside the Ross procedure and transcatheter interventions with dedicated devices. Webinar participants will be better informed on how to treat this patient population.
