Learner Objectives

The goal of this course is to prepare physicians for certification or recertification by enhancing competency in interventional cardiology.

Upon completion of this course, attendees should be able to —

• Summarize key concepts of vascular biology and atherosclerosis and the fundamental concepts of cardiovascular physiology
• Explain thrombosis and the use of antithrombotic therapeutics, including antiplatelet, anticoagulant and thrombolytic agents
• Incorporate adult congenital heart disease and the application of interventional therapies in this setting, including imaging fundamentals and pharmacologic adjuncts useful in PCI
• Interpret and critique the findings of major clinical trials and existing interventional devices and techniques in interventional cardiology
• Recall ACC/AHA/SCAI guidelines regarding the practice of interventional cardiology, particularly with respect to indications for catheterization and intervention
• Apply recent advances in mechanical support to their practice

Target Audience

This course is intended for physicians preparing for initial Board certification or recertification. Cardiovascular specialists, physicians, Fellows in Training and cardiovascular care associates seeking an in-depth review of interventional cardiology will also find this course of value.

Physicians

The American College of Cardiology Foundation (ACCF) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

The ACCF designates this live activity for a maximum of 30.75* AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

MOC Statement

Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 30.75 Medical Knowledge MOC points in the American Board of Internal Medicine’s (ABIM) Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program.
