Updates in Guideline-Directed Antiarrhythmic Medications in AFib
Watch a discussion on AFib management strategies in people with comorbidities and special populations, including pharmacological agents for rhythm and rate control as well as treatment objectives. CE and MOC credits available.Improving Outcomes for Patients with AFib
This case-based presentation is designed to provide learners with the evidence and knowledge they require to incorporate guideline-based care and new research findings into their management of patients with AF, including the appropriate use of rate and rhythm control options, anticoagulants, anti-arrhythmic drugs, lifestyle approaches, and non-pharmacologic therapies, as well as understand ethnic/racial differences in outcomes for AF.
CE and MOC Credits Available.
Lifestyle Modifications, Screening and Remote for AFib
This live webinar is designed to examine important evidence-based strategies for screening and management of atrial fibrillation in clinical practice. Specifically, current evidence and knowledge gaps concerning lifestyle management, screening for atrial fibrillation, remote monitoring, and treatment of special populations will be discussed.
CE and MOC Credits Available. Approved for 1.0 AAFP Prescribed Credit.
Rhythm vs. Rate Control in AFib: When and Why
Learn the benefits of rhythm control vs. rate control in your AF patients. Apply the evidence as experts use case studies of patient scenarios to discuss both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies to achieve normal sinus rhythm. Treatment considerations for AF and heart failure is discussed.
