Carlo Pappone performed successfully the
first
transatlantic
arrhythmia
ablation
procedure from Boston, while the patient
was in Italy, 4.000 miles away. In front of
hundreds of spectators, during the annual
Heart Rhythm Society Meeting, Pappone
performed an AF ablation procedure, by
using a simple computer keyboard able to
remotely control a magnetically guided
ablation catheter. The importance of this
event is that new frontiers have been
crossed, as physicians can now carry out
long-distance heart procedures in any part
of the world. This is another significant
scientific step forward in mankind welfare.
This event can be considered as the
beginning of a democratic medicine for
everyone,
as
underdeveloped
people
countries
living
can
in
finally
benefit from much more experienced
centers by the remote ablative therapy.

Organization of International Courses and Training Programs
Arrhythmology Academy
Program Director: Carlo Pappone
Scientific Director: Vincenzo Santinelli
Dr. Pappone is the Founder and Director of the Arrhythmology Academy at San
Raffaele University-Hospital in Milan. The Academy promotes advances in
interventional electrophysiology techniques ensuring these are translated as quickly as
possible into healthcare benefits for society. The Academy promotes theory and practice
through interactive discussion and comments during live procedure demonstration
performed by Dr. Pappone, meetings, and lectures. It has numerous interactions and
partnership in Italy and internationally. Collaboration with industry is also undertaken.
These training programs are attended annually by interventional electrophysiologists
from all around the world. The Academy is accredited by the European Society of
Cardiology (EBAC) and the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS, USA) and in the past it was
accreditated by the Italian Ministry of Health.
State of the Art in AFIB Treatments Training course for worldwide Trained
Cardiologists, Cardiologists in Training, other Physicians, Nurses and
Technicians and Electrophysiologists, at the at the Academy of Arrhythmology
San Raffaele University Hospital, Milan, Italy. (a 2-day monthly program since
July 2004 on). As the Program is completely based on live sessions of
transcatether ablation procedures and implant of systems for cardiac
resynchronisation therapy, the attendees can get directly from the operators the
most important tips
that make simple an electrophysilogy procedure It is
supported by Johnson & Johnson.
