Cardiac Symposium

Clinical Aspects of Cardiovascular Care

Friday November 9th, 2012

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:

This program is designed to keep the cardiovascular healthcare providers abreast of current evidence-based medicine and new therapeutic options for patients with cardiac and vascular disease. We have selected specialists with expertise and passion for teaching that will emphasize basic concepts and provide "take-home messages".

At the completion of the symposium, attendees will be able to understand better the clinical situations, drug therapy, procedures and preventive measures in cardiovascular disease. In addition, attendees will get an appreciation of the current controversies and the art of practicing medicine today.
