142 - MULTIDISCIPLINARY WORKSHOP ON THE TRICUSPID REGURGITATION MANAGEMENT IN PATIENTS WITH TRANSVENOUS LEADS IN PLACE OR RHYTHM DISORDERS

Workshop Description: The multidisciplinary workshop will include 3 case-based presentations and cover the following topics:
1) What should I look at on TEE when I evaluate a tricuspid regurgitation with transvenous leads in place?
2) Should I remove the transvenous leads 1st every time?
3) Debate between percutaneous and surgical treatment of TR in case of transvenous leads in place and/or rhythm disorders.
This topic is a hot topic in the field of heart teams (involving echocardiographers, electrophysiologists, surgeons, and interventional cardiologists) and valvular disease, with limited appreciation and data of a rational approach to these patients. This workshop will fulfill the learning needs of those seeking a comprehensive and practical approach to these difficult multidisciplinary cases which are frequent challenges to all involved in the clinical management of those patients. Workshop participants will also learn how to
interpret the TEE images in such cases, manage CIEDs in such patients, and discuss the options available to treat the TR in such patients.
The CHRS education committee has planned this workshop. Members of this committee include community and academic cardiologists,
electrophysiologists, cardiology residents, and allied professionals from diverse practices and experience across Canada. The CHRS education
committee is composed of representatives from each of the following regions: British Colombia, Prairies, Ontario, Quebec, and Atlantic Provinces. The
CHRS education committee has developed an objective and balanced representation of the topic of "tricuspid regurgitation and devices" that is completely free of third-party influence and/or support. Of note, the previous "Tricuspid regurgitation management" workshop was held at CCC 2023 with great attendance and was highly successful with plenty of interaction and discussion. This topic is relatively frequently encountered in the practice of clinical cardiology. Based on the success of this workshop, the CHRS education committee has decided to plan a "TR management" workshop annually at CCC, to fulfill the learning needs of cardiologists, surgeons, internists, and trainees in the field of arrhythmia, echocardiography and valvular (tricuspid) management.

Interactive and Engagement Activities Description: Each speaker will open with a case presentation relevant to the topic assigned. Two presentations will last 10 minutes and include 3 questions answer to promote interactive learning via an audience response system. A debate (5 minutes each, and 5 minutes rebuttal) will be held between surgeon and interventional. Each presentation will last 10 minutes which will allow for 30 minutes of presentations and 15 minutes of discussion.
