Cardiology care is rapidly evolving. Traditionally, the process of updating cardiovascular disease guidelines has been time-consuming, sometimes spanning a decade or more. Recent efforts by organizations such as the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the American Heart Association (AHA) have expedited this process, particularly in key areas like atrial fibrillation, chronic coronary disease, acute coronary syndromes, and peripheral artery disease. Some of the previous guidelines for these conditions have been used in clinical practice since 2013, underscoring the pressing need for up-to-date recommendations. The goal of this program is to provide attendees with a well-rounded understanding of the most important practice-changing updates in cardiology, including how they can best influence patient care, apply treatment strategies, and plan for long-term outcomes. Experts in cardiology will highlight key information from newer guidelines in a panel format followed by a speaker Q & A.
