Needs Assessment
Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) in the U.S. affects approximately 8 million to 12 million patients a year; some experts in the field believe this may be underestimated. The disease is associated with significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with a high rate of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction, stroke, renal failure, limb amputations, abdominal aortic aneurysms, pulmonary embolus and progressive ischemic end-organ dysfunction. Since atherosclerosis is the most common cause of PVD, patients with PVD have a rate of cardiovascular mortality that is 3 to 4 times higher than age-matched controls. The cardiac mortality in symptomatic PVD is estimated to be 50% at 10 years. The reduction in quality of life from global vasculopathy in many patients can thus be significant. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of these disease processes is of utmost importance. The AVIDsymposium® is designed to address this need by providing the vascular community with continuing medical education in this area. The latest pharmacologic, radiologic, surgical and endovascular techniques and technologies will be presented, along with discussions of when these treatments are justified and indicated and when they are not. Updates on clinical trials and opportunities for dialogue with experts in the field provide insight along with the latest data on the results of the various diagnostic and treatment modalities.
Target Audience
This course is intended for: Vascular Technologists, Sonographers, Vascular Surgeons, Radiologists, Neurologists, Vascular Nurses, Vascular Interventionalists, Medical and Ultrasound Students and other physicians and allied health professionals with an interest in the diagnosis and treatment of vascular disease
Educational Objectives
Following this enduring material, the participants will be able to:
1. Describe recent developments in vascular ultrasound technology.
2. Incorporate the Vascular Laboratory into the management of patients with vascular disease.
3. Identify and compare noninvasive tests that are available to aid in the diagnosis of vascular disease.
4. Identify current therapies and their roles for the effective management of peripheral arterial/venous disease, and carotid artery disease.
5. Utilize duplex ultrasound prior to, during and after endovascular procedures.
6. Apply issues regarding Vascular Laboratory management, reimbursement and accreditation to their practice
