Our slate of upcoming CME events includes courses in warmer locales such as Dallas and Miami — followed by Chicago and Cleveland in the early weeks of spring.
And the courses are just as diverse on the topical front, ranging from management of cardiovascular disease in general to focused explorations of valve disease and critical limb ischemia.
Below are the essentials on several upcoming live courses sponsored by Cleveland Clinic. For complimentary online CME activities that can be completed from the convenience of your home or office, visit ccfcme.org and choose “Cardiology” under “Online CME by Specialty.”
