Learn about the contemporary approaches to the treatment of AF and Left Atrial Appendage Management from both the perspectives of cardiac electrophysiology and cardiac surgery. It's a great opportunity for understanding, collaboration and gaining a hands-on experience across disciplines on the common goal of providing patients improved options to manage their AF.
