Preparing for Successful Transvenous Electrical Cardioversion in Horses

Presentation Description / Summary: Transvenous electrocardioversion (TVEC) is considered the preferred treatment for equine atrial fibrillation but requires extensive preparation and cohesion of multiple services to perform successfully. This interactive session will pair the insights derived by a new operator regarding the preparations necessary for new operators to perform TVEC with those of an experienced equine cardiologist who performs frequent TVEC procedures, with the goal to help those who are interested in establishing this service at their practices or institutions. We also plan to draw on the opinions of attending audience members, many of whom will also have experience in equine TVEC and can provide valuable insights.
