Cardiovascular Disease Management: A Case-Based Approach 2014
This Two-day continuing medical education symposium will center on the nuts and bolts of everyday care for patients with cardiovascular diseases, and present new ideas for tailoring the most appropriate treatment plan for each individual. Focus will be placed on gauging and monitoring therapy, including recognizing symptoms, evaluating risk factors, guiding treatment through imaging, general and functional testing, and appropriate therapy. Unlike most meetings, CDM 2014 will be presented as a case-based program. In other words, how would I manage a diabetic patient with these lipid levels? Case examples make the lectures more relevant to everyday practitioners.
Working with the most current data from recent evidence-based medicine studies, as well as new guidelines, the invited faculty will discuss options for patients with coronary disease, peripheral vascular disease, renal vascular disease, carotid disease, valvular heart disease, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, congestive heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. Ultimately, the goal is to provide an overview of the optimal methods and management for the informed physician’s practice and the cardiovascular team’s patient care. We will discuss and debate the exciting options on the horizon and have included world experts in cardiovascular device development and delivery of healthcare to help us navigate this new era of healthcare.
