Symposium Description: It's easy to get buried in the avalanche of new literature that gets published every week in cardiology. Which articles are relevant to emergency physicians rather than cardiologists? Which evolving topics and issues in emergency cardiology should change your practice? The speakers have sorted through the literature for you and will discuss many of the hot topics from the recent few years that are critical to your emergency medicine practice, the topics that you’ve got to know!
