Innovations in Autonomic Therapies for Atrial Fibrillation

Main Stage 2
September 05, 2025 | 09:45 AM (EDT) - 10:30 AM (EDT)

The autonomic nervous system is known to play a critical role in the initiation and/or triggering of many arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation. Autonomic therapies have moved well-beyond isolated ablation of cardiac ganglionated plexi. This session will review the innovations that have expanded autonomic therapies, including tragus stimulation, renal sympathetic denervation, and future innovations for additional interventions.
