This webinar will discuss the technology and utility of CCM™ therapy (cardiac contractility modulation) for patients that have heart failure and remain symptomatic despite being on guideline directed medical therapy. Optimizer is designed to improve overall heart function and quality of life for patients living with heart failure. CCM therapy indications will be outlined and reviewed along with best practices for screening patients so that health care providers can offer this technology for patients that qualify. There will also be a discussion surrounding the mechanics and steps to getting a CCM program set up at your institution.
