masters of structural heart disease

The Eleventh Annual Innovations and Trends in Cardiovascular Care presents:
MASTERS OF STRUCTURAL HEART DISEASE
Audience
This activity is designed for Cardiologists, Cardiovascular Surgeons, Internists,
Residents, Fellows, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Cardiac Nurses,
Cardiovascular Technologists, and Cardiovascular Program Administrators.
Program Overview
The management of structural heart disease has changed dramatically in the past
5 years. The purpose of this intense one-day symposium is to provide healthcare
providers involved in the management of structural heart disease an up-to-date
expert review on the most recent guidelines, diagnoses, and expanding array of
clinical management options for aortic and mitral valve disease. This clinically
relevant program includes world renowned experts in the field who will present
the latest medical evidence and guidelines, focusing on who should be treated,
how and when to treat, and whether or not it is ever too late to intervene.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
Program Information:
• Discuss the latest technological and procedural advancements in minimally
invasive approaches to replace aortic valves
Saturday, October 18, 2014
• Apply guideline recommendations on the use of cardiac catheterization and
echocardiogram tests in assessing aortic valve disease and its severity

MASTERS OF STRUCTURAL HEART DISEASE
Audience
This activity is designed for Cardiologists, Cardiovascular Surgeons, Internists,
Residents, Fellows, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Cardiac Nurses,
Cardiovascular Technologists, and Cardiovascular Program Administrators.
Program Overview
The management of structural heart disease has changed dramatically in the past
5 years. The purpose of this intense one-day symposium is to provide healthcare
providers involved in the management of structural heart disease an up-to-date
expert review on the most recent guidelines, diagnoses, and expanding array of
clinical management options for aortic and mitral valve disease. This clinically
relevant program includes world renowned experts in the field who will present
the latest medical evidence and guidelines, focusing on who should be treated,
how and when to treat, and whether or not it is ever too late to intervene.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
Program Information:
