OasisLMS

Core Concepts In EP for the Allied Professional is designed to serve Allied Professionals (APs) in the EP community. It is intended to be an indispensable tool for providing fundamentally sound EP knowledge for APs.

This course has more than 40 recorded didactic lectures delivered by leading experts covering:    

• Bradyarrhythmias
• CIEDS
• General Concepts
• Tachyarrhythmias
• Atrial Fibrillation and Flutter
• Pharmacology
• Genetics of EP
• Pediatric Electrophysiology

...and much more!

This course also includes an 85 question Practice Exam that allows you to review and assess your understanding of the concepts covered in the course lectures. This practice exam is worth 10 ACE credits.

• Discuss safety and quality improvement in the EP lab
• Discuss shared medical decision making
• Understand the anatomy and physiology associated with bradyarrhythmia
• Review CIED remote monitoring and remote interrogation concepts
• Recognize the clinical factors in patients that are important in influencing risk of complications and risk of ablation failure.
• Understand special considerations for adults with congenital heart disease (e.g., limited access, common arrhythmias of specific CHD lesions)
• Understand the inheritance pattern and associated channelopathy of inherited arrhythmias
• Understand medical/device therapy indications and indications for advanced therapies for hypertrophic CM

This activity is designed for APPs, Registered Nurses, Cardiac Technicians/Technologists/Therapists/ Physiologist, Genetic Counselors, and other non-Physicians seeking a comprehensive overview of electrophysiology.

The Heart Rhythm Society is committed to the provision of Accredited Continuing Education (formerly known as Continuing Medical Education (CME)) that is balanced, objective, and evidence based. HRS adheres to the Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) which require that those individuals in a position to control the content of an educational activity (including, but not limited to, planners, faculty, authors, committee members, content reviewers, editors, and staff) disclose all financial relationships with an ACCME-defined ineligible company within the 24 months prior to the disclosure.

The Heart Rhythm Society takes steps to assure its learners and the public that the content of certified activities is accurate and reliable. The following principles are applied to the process of validating CME content. The content is peer-reviewed to ensure the following:

Fair Balance - that content is balanced among various options available for treatment and not biased toward a particular product or manufacturer.

Patient Treatment Recommendations - that patient treatment recommendations contained in the content are evidence-based, are appropriate for the target audience, and that the patient treatment recommendations contribute to overall improvement in patient care.

Scientific Validity - those scientific studies cited in the activity conform to standards accepted by the scientific community.

Learning Objectives - that the educational content supports the learning objectives of the activity, and that the objectives stated for performance-in-practice are actionable and measurable.

Omissions - that no seminal studies, data, or best evidence are missing.

ACE (formerly CME) and CoP Certificates will be awarded and available to download and print following the completion of the course and the course evaluation. Should you have any questions regarding your ACE certificate, please contact CME@HRSonline.org.
