This Masterclass, led by prominent interventional cardiologist and trialist Dr. Deepak L. Bhatt, will explore the latest advances in interventional cardiology. Multidisciplinary experts will present on comprehensive interventional cardiology topics, including pre-procedural evaluation, pharmacological aspects, coronary intervention, peripheral intervention, structural intervention, and more. Each section will include patient cases and expert panel discussion, which will aim to provide practical approaches to patient management and interpret the latest advances to patient care. Do not miss your opportunity to learn from and interact with the experts!

Target Audience

This Masterclass is designed for advanced level interventional cardiology clinicians including primary care clinicians (PCPs), cardiologists, nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), pharmacists, and other allied health professionals.

After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:

  • Integrate advances in the screening, diagnosis, and risk assessment for patients with stable coronary and peripheral artery disease, as well those with acute coronary syndrome

  • Outline appropriate pharmacotherapy for patients ACS, CAD, and PAD before and after procedural interventions

  • Interpret the results from key clinical trials and evidence for patients with structural and valvular heart disease and advanced heart failure

  • Evaluate the role of pharmacotherapy and evidence-based interventional technologies for the management of atrial fibrillation and arrhythmias

  • Discuss advances in pharmacotherapy and endovascular thrombectomy for stroke prevention in patients with arrhythmias or VTE

  • Develop individualized treatment options and interventions for patients with CAD, PAD, ACS, arrhythmias, VTE, and advanced heart failure that incorporate the latest advances in interventional technologies, drugs, and procedures to optimize outcomes
