Mayo Clinic Cardiac Rhythm Device Summit Implantation, Management & Follow-Up 2026
+ Target Audience: cardiologists, internists, family practitioners, physician assistants, cardiovascular nurse practitioners + Information:June 25-27, 2026
The Cardiac Device Summit delivers a comprehensive and practical update on the indications, management, and follow-up care of cardiac rhythm technologies. Designed for clinicians involved in the care of patients with implantable cardiac devices, this course emphasizes clinical pearls and real-world strategies to optimize patient outcomes. Each year, hundreds of thousands of patients receive devices such as pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices to treat conditions including bradyarrhythmias, tachyarrhythmias, and heart failure. As the indications for these devices continue to expand, so does the complexity of programming, troubleshooting, and long-term management. This summit features expert-led sessions, interactive case discussions, and in-depth reviews of emerging technologies and evidence-based practices. Attendees will gain actionable insights into optimizing device therapy, navigating challenging clinical scenarios, and delivering high-quality, patient-centered care in a rapidly evolving field. LEARNING OBJECTIVES- Describe the current indications for pacemaker, ICD, subcutaneous ICD, and resynchronization therapies
- Recognize upcoming technologies such as leadless and epicardial devices
- Interpret diagnostic material (electrocardiograms, impedance, radiography, and other sources) to troubleshoot suspected implantable device malfunction
- Discuss common issues seen in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices
- Identify the current capabilities of remote monitoring to manage patients with cardiovascular risk and disease
- Recognize precise cardiac anatomy to facilitate lead placement
