Stay Current on the Newest Advances

Comprehensive Review of Interventional Cardiology is an in-depth guide to the diagnostic, management, and technical skills required in this continually advancing field. Authoritative interventional cardiologists cover topics like anticoagulation, cardiogenic shock, bifurcation stenting, bypass grafts, renal artery stenting, pericardial interventions, and more. This CME course will help you to:

• List effective lipid-lowering pharmacologic therapies
• Illustrate carotid and cerebrovascular interventions
• Outline interventions used for stable angina and silent ischemia
• Discuss different peripheral interventions for upper and lower extremities
• Describe interventions for patent foramen ovale and atrial septal defect closure
• Distinguish between the various stents used to treat coronary disease
  

  Accreditation

  Designation

  Oakstone Publishing designates this enduring material for a maximum of 26.50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits ™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

  ABIM MOC Medical Knowledge MOC Points

  Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 26.50 Medical Knowledge MOC points in the American Board of Internal Medicine’s (ABIM) Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program. Participants will earn MOC points equivalent to the amount of CME credits claimed for the activity. It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credit.
