This educational meeting provides attendees with expert panel review of Abbott CIED patient cases, as submitted by meeting participants.  Discussion is focused on the clinician’s question and may involve any aspect of device patient care such as:

  • device features and functionality
  • interrogation report data and metrics
  • arrhythmia diagnoses and treatment
  • device indications and efficacy

The goal is to enhance clinician knowledge base and clinical decision-making with subsequent improvement in patient care and outcomes.

Meeting attendees are invited and encouraged to submit cases to Mary Johnston, APRN at mary.johnston104@yahoo.com

Case materials should include device interrogation reports and any desired supportive data (patient history, ECG).

Submit cases by December 1st.
Provide us with device interrogation reports and we will take if from there!

All cases are welcome. Where there is any question, we want to provide an answer. All questions are pertinent and important. Submit your cases!
