Medicus of Houston – The Masterclass in Advanced Dysrhythmias (Live, International)

The Masterclass in Advanced Dysrhythmias is an intensive, clinician‑focused deep dive into the rhythms that challenge even seasoned practitioners. Over several immersive days, participants unravel the logic behind complex arrhythmias, concealed conduction, paroxysmal AV block, wide complex tachycardias, and the subtle electrophysiologic mechanisms that drive them. Every session is interactive and case‑driven, with each participant actively analyzing and diagnosing real ECGs under the guidance of Jerry W. Jones, MD FACEP FAAEM, an internationally recognized expert in advanced electrocardiography. With a strict limit of 20 participants, the Masterclass ensures individualized attention, open discussion, and the kind of high‑level mentorship that transforms how clinicians think about dysrhythmias.
