1. Overview

The Iowa Carver College of Medicine Iowa Cardiovascular Summit 2025 provides a comprehensive review of the latest advancements in cardiovascular care, covering foundational hemodynamics, advanced therapies like LVADs, complex electrophysiology, and the growing role of AI in modern cardiology.

Course Date: 2025

2. Learning Objectives

• Evaluate fundamental hemodynamics, challenging ECGs, and basic ischemic risks in early-stage heart failure patients.

• Implement optimized medical strategies for valvular disease, lipid management, and GLP-1 agonist integration in cardiovascular care.

• Assess the efficacy and indications for new and upcoming transcatheter, surgical, and electrophysiology (EP) therapies.

• Manage complex cardiovascular cases, including LVAD emergencies, antiplatelet therapy for CAD, and heart transplant arrhythmias.

• Discuss the evolving role of artificial intelligence and indications for genetic counseling in current-day cardiovascular medicine.
