In order to qualify for the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) credits, you are expected to complete the EACCME Self-assessment. You will find this assessment under the tab "EACCME Self-Assessment" in each module. After you have made the assessment, you will receive the certificate by email. Although recommended for further educational development, if you do not wish to collect EACCME® credits, please note that none of the quizzes are compulsory. You may freely navigate the course in any order at your leisure. Finally, to accompany some of the lectures and presentations, a selection of author-suggested e-books, congress highlights and publications are also available.

 

Educational objective(s)

We will cover a range of topics, from management of heart failure, decision making with patients lists, surgical techniques to the journey of a patient biopsy.
