13th Annual Women and Ischemic Heart Disease Symposium is organized by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and will be held on May 10, 2019 at Cedars Sinai Medical Center Harvey Morse Conference Center South Tower, Los Angeles, California, United States of America.

The target audience for this medical event is Cardiology, Family / General Medicine, Internal Medicine, Preventive Medicine. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 6.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

Overview:
Despite significant advances in our knowledge about preventive interventions, cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading killer of women in the United States and morbidity and mortality rates continue to increase. Yet, many women at risk for coronary heart disease are often not referred for appropriate diagnostic testing, which means the disease process resulting in a heart attack or stroke may not be detected in women until later, with more serious consequences. In an effort to further educate in this area, our planning committee has assembled a distinguished faculty of national speakers, each with a unique expertise in the field of cardiovascular health and heart disease.

This in-depth educational symposium will explore gender specific issues in coronary microvascular dysfunction, management of stable coronary artery disease (CAD), weight loss and updates in diabetes guidelines and therapies. The conference will feature updates on gender medicine, menopause and perimenopause and advances in precision medicine. An afternoon session will underscore important guideline recommendations for hypertension, cholesterol and depression using a case-based approach.

The purpose of this conference is to close the knowledge gap of physicians and allied health care professionals regarding gender- and sex-specific differences in cardiovascular disease, the impact these differences have on treatment options, and to highlight the importance of identifying women at risk for cardiovascular disease by utilizing the most current evidence-based treatment strategies for optimizing patient-centered care.
