Event Overview :
The AdventHealth 3rd Annual Pulmonary Hypertension Symposium 2024 is a comprehensive educational program designed to deliver the latest evidence-based insights into the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Hosted at the AdventHealth Nicholson Center, this two-day symposium emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration between cardiology, pulmonology, and internal medicine to improve patient outcomes.
Target Audience
This program is intended for healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with pulmonary hypertension, including:
- Cardiologists, including specialists in advanced heart failure and right heart dysfunction
- Pulmonologists managing pulmonary vascular disease and chronic lung disorders
- Internists and hospitalists caring for PH patients in both inpatient and outpatient settings
- Advanced practice providers, including nurse practitioners and physician assistants
- Residents and fellows seeking advanced clinical education in PH
- Multidisciplinary team members such as nurses, pharmacists, and rehabilitation specialists
Learning Objectives
Participants will gain practical and clinically relevant knowledge in the following areas:
- Diagnostic Strategies: Advanced use of echocardiography, right heart catheterization, and imaging modalities
- Therapeutic Approaches: Guideline-directed medical therapies, vasodilator treatments, and emerging pharmacologic options
- Advanced Interventions: Surgical and catheter-based treatments, including considerations for lung transplantation
- Multidisciplinary Care Models: Integrated approaches for managing PH across inpatient and outpatient settings
- Case-Based Learning: Real-world clinical scenarios addressing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges
- Future Innovations: Emerging trends in digital health, remote monitoring, and precision medicine
