+ Information:
The ACCP/ASHP Cardiology Pharmacy Preparatory Review Course is ideal for pharmacy professionals preparing for the Cardiology Pharmacy Specialty Certification Examination administered by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS), as well as for those seeking a self-paced review and refresher of disease states and therapeutics. Developed by Board Certified Pharmacists and clinical experts, the course content is based on the domains, tasks, and knowledge statements outlined in the BPS Cardiology Pharmacy content outline. The course content provides a comprehensive review of the knowledge domains covered in the specialty certification examination. The course uses case-based presentations for application to real-life scenarios and includes a practice exam with correct answers, links to reference sources, and identifies the domains, tasks, and knowledge statements associated with each question. The 2026 course is available for continuing pharmacy education credit only (recertification credit is not available in 2026).
Learning Objectives
-
Formulate evidence-based primary and secondary cardiovascular disease prevention strategies, incorporating public health interventions, personalized dyslipidemia management, and guideline-directed blood pressure targets.
-
Design pharmacotherapeutic regimens for stable atherosclerotic disease and manage therapeutic anticoagulation across complex clinical scenarios.
-
Evaluate cardiac arrhythmias, select appropriate antiarrhythmic agents, and identify drug-induced cardiovascular conditions and medications to avoid in patients with cardiovascular disease.
-
Manage chronic heart failure, acute decompensated heart failure, and advanced heart failure therapies, including mechanical circulatory support (MCS) and post-heart transplant pharmacotherapy.
-
Apply acute care pharmacotherapy to acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and life-threatening cardiovascular emergencies, balancing ischemic benefits against hemorrhagic complications.
-
Implement targeted medical therapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and address specialized clinical issues in cardiovascular care.
-
Translate clinical cardiovascular trial evidence into bedside practice and apply core administrative and quality improvement principles to cardiology pharmacy practice.
