Welcome to

HRAS ASM & GP Forum 2025

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the Heart Rhythm Association Singapore (HRAS) will hold our fifth
Annual Scientific Meeting and GP forum from 26 – 27 September 2025 (SGT/GMT+8) at the Singapore
Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel.

We will be hosting our combined annual scientific meeting with our GP forum this year again.
Our programme will comprise of essential topics useful for the general practitioner in the primary
healthcare setting such as the management of atrial fibrillation in specific population groups and an
update of the latest fitness to drive guidelines.

For the cardiac electrophysiologist we will cover the latest advances in pulsed field ablation
for atrial fibrillation and novel mapping techniques as well as highlight some interesting complex
arrhythmia ablation cases.

In our GP forum, we will have our popular ECG focus sessions and highlight the various arrhythmias
and key concepts in ECG interpretation. We will also be discussing primary care management of AF
patients including essential things to note in the choice of anticoagulation and considerations for long
term management.

We will also be having a dedicated session for our allied health professionals – run by EP physiologists
and cardiac technologists to discuss about ambulatory holter rhythm analysis, periprocedural
management of cardiac implantable electronic devices and approaches to device follow up and
troubleshooting.

We have invited an esteemed panel of experts from local, regional and international settings to be
part of the faculty for this meeting to share their invaluable insights.

This meeting will cater to clinicians from all aspects of healthcare and there will be something useful
for everyone – from primary care physicians, allied health professionals, fellows in training to cardiac
electrophysiologists.

We hope that this meeting will be an educational and fruitful experience and that you would will be
able to join us for the event. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Yours Sincerely,

 

Dr Eugene Tan
