The target audience for this event encompasses a wide spectrum of healthcare providers including but not limited to primary care practitioners, hospitalists, cardiovascular and pulmonary specialists, internal medicine specialists, emergency medicine practitioners, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, and other interested allied health care providers. Attendees should be able to formulate a practical approach to common cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders, identify the appropriate diagnostic tests, make an accurate diagnosis, discuss the various treatment options, and recognize when to treat and when to refer cardiovascular and pulmonary patients.
