Presentation Topics

ASCVD Risk Estimation and Communication (1.0 CE contact hours)

Learning Objectives

• Describe modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors and enhancers that are known to increase the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
• Explain currently available ASCVD risk estimation tools.
• Apply tools that can predict risk for ASCVD across patient populations using a case study approach.
• Summarize Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring considerations.

Screening for Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation: Identifying the Undiagnosed Patient (1.0 CE)

Learning Objectives

• Review prevalence and common risk factors associated with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF).
• Describe typical signs and symptoms of NVAF and how to assess for them during a clinical encounter.
• Discuss the importance of pulse taking and follow up ECG to screen high risk patients for NVAF.
• Using case examples, illustrate how to initiate NVAF treatment, provide follow-up and collaboration across the continuum of care to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
