Rhythm Theater Presentation:

When GDMT and ICDS Fall Short: Integrating CCM® Therapy in Heart Failure Care

Program Description:

Join us at this year’s HRS symposium for a focused, data driven discussion on one of the most pressing challenges in heart failure care. This symposium will highlight why current therapeutic options fall short despite advances in GDMT, introduce CCM? therapy as a practical and easily integrated solution alongside ICDs, and underscore the importance for symptom relief for heart failure patients. Attendees will gain insight into the evolving role of CCM in heart failure management, including the latest clinical data and trial updates. CCM? Therapy offers a promising treatment option for patients with NYHA Class III heart failure, and an ejection fraction (EF) of 25–45%, who remain symptomatic despite guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and are not receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
