HRX is a catalyst for innovation for organizations dedicated to discovering cutting-edge breakthroughs, leveraging opportunities, exchanging insights, and engaging in meaningful discussions that lead to successful discovery of new business solutions that advance the field.

This unconventional convening of clinicians, engineers, developers, researchers, entrepreneurs and investors inspires collaborative generation of ideas and pushes boundaries of innovation in cardiovascular medicine.

HRX empowers innovators throughout the health innovation cycle, supporting their journey from discovery, invention, translation, commercialization, and effective clinical utilization. In the space of one room, these trailblazers gain insights into regulatory approvals, clinical trials, market adoption, and the integration of novel technologies into patient care.

We are innovators, thought leaders, and advocates who believe that the future of healthcare lies in virtual, digital, and other cutting-edge technologies. We’re not afraid to challenge the status quo and often push beyond conventional boundaries because we know that we can only deliver the best possible care to patients through bold innovation and collaboration.

MORE THAN 20 MILLION LIVES AT STAKE
Heart Disease is on the rise globally. According to the World Health Organization, almost 20 million people per year die of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Deaths due to cardiovascular disease are expected to increase by 18% by the year 2030. A common silent killer for those with CVD are those who have an irregular heartbeat.

Electrophysiologists (EPs) specialize in heart arrhythmia disorders and are uniquely qualified to serve patients with heart arrhythmia disorders caused by CVD. With so many lives at increased risk for sudden death, we must increase our collective capacity to diagnose, treat, and potentially cure heart arrhythmia disorders.

As the number of lives impacted by CVD increases, so does the need for more robust medical interventions and solutions. Advancements in technology, ranging from diagnostic and treatmentdevices to cloud and consumer technology, will help improve the quality of life and reduce death.

The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) is the go-to membership association of over 7,500 medical professionals in the field of EP. Representing over 90 countries, HRS is the pivotal connector for all organizations and institutions dedicated to serving patients around the globe suffering from heart rhythm disorders. As a clinical field that was birthed in 1967, our membership consists of experts on the ground floor of a nascent but rapidly expanding medical field. Now is the perfect time to join us!

 

“HRX was a unique opportunity to make connections, share knowledge, and build confidence by showing how your idea can grow and help other people. This is a great platform to take your project to the next level and make a difference in complex and costly health care.”

“There’s so many great things. First of all—healthcare is moving digital, and the fact that health and digital technology are now front and center in HRS, forming HRX, is amazing. I love the focus on health equity because today a lot of what we’re talking about are disparities in care and as healthcare providers, we have to figure out how we can deliver and how we can use technology to help us.”
