The target audience for this medical event is Catheterization lab nurses and technicians, cardiovascular nurses, students, fellows in training and local community hospital physicians. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 6.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Course Description:
The UC Irvine Health Cath Lab Essentials Program is designed to expand upon and fill knowledge gaps brought to the attention of the cath lab faculty by the nurses and staff working in the cath lab.

The Society of Invasive Cardiac Professionals recommends periodic updates on current and new cath lab techniques and equipment.
Conference Objectives are :
• Obtain a basic understanding of hemodynamics in the cardiac cath lab and identify pressure measurement, artifacts and the application of pressure waveforms for the diagnosis of valvular abnormalities.
• Review the indications and contraindications for cardiac catheterization, identify complications and their management and understand the use of transfemoral and transradial catheterization techniques.
• Identify new methods for interventional cardiology procedures, the use of hemodynamic support devices, coronary stents, fractional flow reserve (FFR), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
