Overview
The Cardiovascular Symposium is designed to fill the knowledge gaps in the fast-evolving field of cardiology. Patient care providers at all levels will be updated on practical, timely and cutting edge advances in comprehensive cardiac care through an interactive symposium.

Objectives
As a result of participating in this activity, learners should be able to:

  1. Apply core principles of physician and healthcare leadership to improve team performance, alignment, and patient-centered outcomes across diverse clinical settings.
  2. Integrate foundational “rules of the road” in clinical cardiology to enhance diagnostic accuracy, therapeutic decision-making, and value-based care delivery.
  3. Evaluate contemporary management strategies for complex cardiovascular conditions, including valvular heart disease, heart failure with improved ejection fraction, coronary vasospasm, and cardiac arrhythmias.
  4. Select appropriate non-invasive and invasive diagnostic and therapeutic modalities for common clinical presentations such as chest pain, ventricular arrhythmias, and tricuspid regurgitation, based on patient-specific risk and evidence-based guidelines.
  5. Assess emerging and advanced cardiovascular therapies and technologies, including physiologic pacing strategies, transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement, renal denervation, and novel lipid-lowering agents, and their potential impact on patient outcomes.
  6. Incorporate recent clinical trial data into practice, critically appraising new evidence to inform treatment decisions and optimize cardiovascular risk reduction.
