Structural Heart Program

The Structural Heart Program is a free series of four sessions (held live and via webinar) discussing new therapies in structural heart disease that are now becoming commonplace.

These therapies include:

  • TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) for treatment of aortic stenosis
  • MitraClip™ for the treatment of mitral regurgitation
  • LAA Occlusion (Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion) for stroke prevention

The first session of this series was presented in June at the Rural Doctors Association of Queensland Conference 2022.

The Structural Heart Program was supported by Abbott, Medtronic and Rural Doctors Association of Queensland.
