The Toward Standardization and Low Fluoroscopy (TSLF) module is designed for physicians who intend to develop expertise in the diagnosis and management of supraventricular tachycardias. A big focus of this module is put on showing how to optimize procedural workflow and reduce fluoroscopy exposure with the support of the modern technologies.

The TSLF module is divided in four different sessions and lasts for one year, during which attendees will have the opportunity to discover various labs all around Europe and to openly discuss related topics with an enthusiastic and dedicated faculty.

"I want to express my gratitude to Abbott for the wonderful opportunity to attend the EP curriculum SVT (TSLF) module. It was a very interesting course in which we were given the opportunity to closely participate in SVT EP (TSLF) procedures in several centers around Europe. After a brief component where electrophysiological concepts were reminded, all courses included EP room participation where EP fellows were able to really be present in the EP room during EP procedures with experienced operators, who kindly offered explanations and technical tips throughout the procedure. With its unique design, this course allows EP fellows to get acquainted with different ablation approaches to SVT, shared by the most respected EP experts."
