On-Demand: Achieving the Quadruple Aim with Post-TAVR MCOT Monitoring: A Multi-Disciplinary Round Table with University of Maryland Medical Center-Webinar Recording

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speakers discuss the implementation and benefits of a post-TAVR MCOT monitoring program at the University of Maryland Medical Center. The program was developed due to a tragic event where a patient died from delayed heart block after TAVR. The goal of the program is to detect heart block and AFib within 30 days after TAVR, in order to provide early intervention and prevent adverse events. The MCOT (Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry) monitors allow for real-time data analysis and immediate notifications in case of arrhythmias. The speakers share their experiences and success stories with the program, highlighting instances where the monitoring system helped identify and treat conduction abnormalities, potentially saving lives. They emphasize the ease of use and accessibility of the MCOT devices, as well as the positive impact on length of stay and patient outcomes. The webinar concludes with a discussion on the importance of communication with referring cardiologists and primary care physicians to ensure a coordinated and comprehensive approach to patient care. The speakers offer advice for implementing similar programs, including the need for a champion to lead the program, real-time monitoring capabilities, and clear communication pathways with healthcare professionals. The webinar aims to share the University of Maryland's success in implementing a post-TAVR MCOT monitoring program and encourage others to consider its benefits.
