Innovation & Development of New Tools for Lead Extraction

Main Stage 2
September 20, 2026 | 10:45 AM (EDT) - 11:30 AM (EDT)

Lead management remains an important part of contemporary electrophysiologic care. While extraction tools have relied on blunt mechanical dissection, rotational cutting tools, laser assisted technologies, and snares, new innovations are on the horizon. This session will explore the key opportunities for innovation in lead extraction procedures.
