Specialised Education Programs

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.
