Welcome to

The 6th HRAS ASM & GP Forum 2026

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the Heart Rhythm Association Singapore (HRAS), it gives us great pleasure to invite you to our sixth Annual Scientific Meeting and GP Forum, taking place from 25 – 26 September 2026 (SGT/GMT+8) at the Conrad Singapore Orchard.

Once again, we will be combining our Annual Scientific Meeting with the GP Forum to bring together the wider healthcare community under one roof. The programme features essential topics for general practitioners in the primary care setting, including the evaluation of syncope in young and fit patients, the emerging role of novel therapies such as SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 RAs in arrhythmia management, and an overview of the latest wearable health technologies.

For cardiac electrophysiologists, the meeting will explore the latest advances in pulsed field ablation (PFA) for atrial fibrillation, including single-shot and focal catheter platforms, contemporary sedation workflows, and hybrid treatment strategies. We will also highlight novel approaches in 3D electroanatomical mapping, ICE-guided strategies in ventricular tachycardia ablation, and the latest updates in antibradycardia device therapy, including conduction system pacing and leadless pacemakers.

The GP Forum will once again feature our popular ECG-focused sessions, sharpening practical, everyday interpretation skills across topics ranging from toxins and electrolyte derangements to high-risk features of malignant arrhythmias and the athlete’s ECG. We will also discuss the primary care management of patients with atrial fibrillation, with particular focus on early rhythm control and essential stroke-prevention strategies for those at high bleeding risk.

A dedicated session for allied health professionals will cover the different types of home ambulatory rhythm monitoring devices, periprocedural and pre-MRI device management, approaches to remote monitoring, and the fundamentals of ICD programming and troubleshooting.

This year, our dedicated Fellows and Senior Residents Track returns with an exciting series of challenging ECG, device, and EGM cases drawn from everyday clinical practice. We are also thrilled to introduce a new IBHRE Exam Preparatory Track, featuring an essential tips-and-tricks session led by one of our highly experienced cardiac electrophysiologists from Thailand.

Our technology suites will also feature simulators and hands-on sessions covering the latest CRM technologies, including new CSP leads, dual-chamber leadless pacemakers, and EV ICDs. Together with other leading vendors from the arrhythmia management industry, these booths and suites will run throughout the forum, creating valuable opportunities for interaction among general practitioners, cardiac electrophysiologists, trainees, and allied health professionals.

We are honoured to welcome an esteemed faculty of experts from local, regional, and international backgrounds, who will generously share their invaluable knowledge and experience with us.

With content spanning the full breadth of cardiac rhythm management, this meeting offers something valuable for everyone – from primary care physicians and allied health professionals to fellows in training and cardiac electrophysiologists.

We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be an enriching and memorable meeting, and hope you will join us this September for an outstanding programme of learning, networking, and collaboration.

Yours Sincerely,
