This year the conference is pleased to have keynote presenters Akshay Desai, MD, MPH from Brigham and Women s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, to speak on Outpatient Strategies for Preventing Hospital Readmission Due to Exacerbations of Congestive Heart Failure and Kim Eagle, MD, MACC, from University of Michigan to speak about Principles of Preoperative Evaluation and Perioperative Management. Additionally, 11 local experts will address a wide range of cardiology topics that include management of aortic stenosis, advanced heart failure, noninvasive evaluation of coronary artery disease, the role of PCI in stable CAD, dyslipidemia updates, and cardiovascular risk factor assessment in children.
