We offer a range of annual courses which complement the fields into which we are researching and support the development of specialist expertise in many areas. These courses are backed by a Department with an internationally recognised reputation for research and present a unique blend of theoretical and practical lectures taught by leading specialists in cardiology, who bring with them their exceptional expertise.We currently run courses on:
With Barts Health NHS Trust’s expected merger with The Heart Hospital this year, we are much keener to invest our energies in a new Electrophysiology Grand Round that we will be running jointly with The Heart Hospital from April 2014 until we become a single unit. This will provide a forum for discussing aspects of clinical care of patients with cardiac arrhythmias and the group will meet throughout the year on 28th April, 16th June, 15th September, 13th October and 17th November at St Bartholomew’s Hospital where other centres will be presenting a case or cases. The meetings last one hour and are followed by light refreshments.
The discussions will be of high quality and attended by Consultants as well as a large number of junior staff, nurses and technicians. The meetings are very informal and the refreshment session afterwards allows an opportunity for informal discussion.It is a forum which allows considerable interchange between staff of different hospitals and will be a very valuable addition to the London electrophysiology scene.
All the meetings will take place at St Bartholomew’s Hospital, Robin Brook Centre, West Smithfield, London EC1A 7BE from 18.30 to 19.30 followed by refreshments.
This is an update evening on the management of cardiac arrhythmias aimed at GPs. The meeting is being sponsored by Bayer. For further details please click here.
This Course is held annually and previous instalments of this course have attracted delegates from many specialties of cardiology including doctors, nurses, physiologists and technicians. This two-day course provides delegates with a comprehensive 'hands-on' training in all aspects of cardiac electrophysiology. The high lecturer-to-delegate ratio allows delegates an inclusive introduction to EP, with a central focus on practical sessions.
