2017 Electrophysiology Board Review-DVD and Printed Syllabus

Mayo Clinic Electrophysiology Board Review - Viewable on DVD with Syllabus and Audio Flashdrive.

In your purchase, you received:

• 7 DVDs with over 25.5 hours of lectures and 50 post-test questions
• Printed Syllabus
• Audio FlashDrive - These files can be downloaded.  Please note that Mayo Clinic CV Education does not provide customer service for this flash drive.
• The DVD format comes with 8 DVDs and an audio-only flash drive. These audio files can be downloaded and used alongside the printed syllabus, provided in your purchase, for viewing anytime. The DVD format now has a pre-test on the learning portal to identify areas of strength and weakness and then directing their learning with a personalized study guide that concentrates solely on areas where they need reinforcement.  It will then direct the learner to the DVD that they need to view. The DVDs only require a post-test upon completion of viewing the DVDs to acquire AMA PRA Category 1 Credits^TM and ABIM MOC Medical Knowledge points. The post-test questions are broke down in modules by DVD and credit can be obtained as you complete each DVD. You will have two years to obtain credit with this product.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This enduring material is a recording of the Mayo Clinic Electrophysiology Review Course for Boards and Recertification (August 11-14, 2017). Physician participation in this activity consists of reviewing the PDF presentations and video and completing the online exam with an 80% pass rate to claim credit. It is estimated that this activity will take 25.5 viewing hours to complete.

Mayo Clinic Electrophysiology Review Course focuses on an overview of all aspects of cardiovascular electrophysiology. Experts in each field will give in-depth didactics on state-of-the- art subjects in electrophysiology and device therapy. Each lecture will include questions and answers. Although this course is designed specifically to prepare the electrophysiologist specialist for the electrophysiology boards or recertification, it will also provide the cardiologist or practicing electrophysiologist with an update on the latest knowledge and advances in electrophysiology. The full spectrum of electrophysiology practice will be reviewed ranging from basic arrhythmia mechanisms and pharmacology to catheter diagnosis and therapy and device-based treatments. This includes special sessions reviewing maneuvers for arrhythmia diagnosis in the electrophysiology laboratory and ablation of atrial fibrillation.

Please note:  This product is derived from the live board review course. Any references to the pre-test, online modules or portal tools are made in reference to the live course learning experience and are not a part of the DVD offering. Please refer to the DVD Breakdown in your uploaded materials for the content available to you.

COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon conclusion of this program, participants should be able to:

•  Describe the molecular basis of the action potential of the human heart
•  Identify the EP characteristics of cardiac impulse propagation including anisotropy, cable theory, and spiral/scroll conduction
•  Distinguish the clinical principles and theory of defibrillation and cardiac resynchronization
•  Recognize the pharmacokinetic properties of antiarrhythmic drugs, including use dependence
•  Recognize and describe the basic mechanisms of common LQTS, Brugada, short-QT, and J-wave syndromes
•  Diagnose cardioinhibitory, vasodepressor, and vasovagal syncope syndromes and manage patients appropriately
•  Formulate management approaches to the arrhythmia syndromes in congenital heart disease, sarcoid, and ARVD
•  Apply 3-D mapping techniques to distinguish between reentrant versus. focal mechanisms of VT
•  Develop evidence-based approaches for atrial fibrillation ablation
•  Select and appropriately utilize maneuvers to differentiate AVNRT from JT and ORT in the EP lab
•  Select effective clinical management and ablation approaches to outflow tract ventricular tachycardias (VTs)

Mayo Clinic course does not indicate nor guarantee competence or proficiency in the performance of any procedures which may be discussed or taught in this course.

INTENDED AUDIENCE
This course is intended for cardiologists, electrophysiologists, cardiovascular fellows, electrophysiology fellows, and all practitioners involved in the care of complex arrhythmia patients in the outpatient and laboratory settings.
