Yesterday, we hosted an AF cryoablation teaching day.

The session was attended by electrophysiologists Manoj Obeyesekere (MH-alum) & Sandeep Prabhu, along with Emily Kotschet, Stewart Healy & Jeff Alison. Was great to welcome our colleagues from @northernhealth_ & @AlfredHealth

The cases were performed by Monash Heart Drs Adam Brown and James Sapontis, with case presentations by Hash Rashid (pictured above) and John Ramzy.

The ANZET meeting is alongside @thecsanz meeting, which is virtual this year. More here: https://t.co/hcG39eNftz

It takes a team to deliver high quality learning and education opportunities - and our team take that seriously!

Today the MonashHeart team recorded their case ready to be presented next month at the 14th ANZET (ET = endovascular therapies) meeting. https://t.co/jKoWqQAPZ0

An important finding from the STRENGTH study presented at @AHAMeetings and published in @JAMA_current!

Have you had a heart attack? Or do you know someone who has that might be interested in participating in research to develop new solutions for care?

@farhadfatehi would like to have you involved in a new @MonashUni study.

In a world first, the team at Monash Heart have implanted a 'lead-less' pacemaker the size of a grain of rice, into a patient right here in Melbourne!

[MonashHeart @MonashHeart]

A big step forward, it is hoped that these new devices will make it easier to treat patients with heart failure, and may reduce some of the risks associated with pacemakers with wires (like infections), which in turn increase the risk of more complicated procedures.
