INFORMATION
Statement of Need
Cardiovascular disease remains the number one cause of death of men and women in
the United States, and is a major cause of disability. The American Heart Association has
a stated goal to reduce deaths from cardiovascular disease and stroke by 20% by 2020.
In order to achieve this goal, physicians and clinicians must gain the knowledge, skill and
resources to integrate the latest research and clinical guidelines in the context of their
own practice.
At ESCAPE, attendees will hear nationally recognized speakers discuss four prevention
focused areas relative to cardiology for practicing physicians and clinicians: Controversies
in Prevention, Hot topics in Prevention, Practical Prevention and Prevention Potpourri.
There will be lectures on women and heart disease, interventional cardiology, peripheral
vascular disease and congestive heart failure.
