• Description: Help stop the No. 1 killer of adults in America. Family physicians and care teams are uniquely positioned to identify patients at risk of developing or further worsening cardiovascular disease due to lifestyle behaviors and social determinants of health. Educating them about their risks and providing the best possible care can truly make a difference. Strengthen your diagnostic knowledge and increase confidence in interpreting and imaging with this online cardiology course. This on-demand educational activity is packed with updated protocols, information about emerging trends, and the latest advancements in cardiovascular medicine, covering heart failure, coronary artery disease, hypertension, lipid disorders, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, and common comorbidities.

Learning Objectives

1. Apply evidence-based approaches for primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention of cardiovascular disease.

2. Assess cardiovascular risk and counsel patients on behavior modification, medication adherence, and self-management strategies to reduce risk.

3. Construct evidence-based diagnostic and treatment plans for common cardiovascular conditions, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, VTE, cerebrovascular disease, and related comorbidities.

4. Improve diagnostic decision-making through appropriate interpretation and use of ECGs, cardiac imaging, laboratory tests, and risk stratification tools.

5. Recognize when referral, consultation, or interprofessional collaboration is needed to optimize cardiovascular care.

6. Use reflection and translation-to-practice tools to identify actionable practice changes and evaluate barriers to implementation.

Target Audience

Family physicians and care teams are uniquely positioned to identify patients at risk of developing or further worsening cardiovascular disease due to lifestyle behaviors and social determinants of health.

Best for Family Physicians, Primary Care Physicians, Internists, Hospitalists, Cardiologists, Lipidologists, Vascular Medicine Specialists, Hematologists, Neurologists, Endocrinologists, Emergency Medicine Physicians, Nephrologists, and Radiologists.
