2. Learning Objectives

• Evaluate comprehensive treatment strategies for deep and superficial venous insufficiency, including DVT management and pelvic congestion syndrome.

• Analyze current algorithms for carotid interventions, weighing the benefits of CEA, TCAR, and medical management.

• Assess advanced endovascular approaches for complex aortic diseases, including TEVAR, fenestrated grafts, and the management of endoleaks.

• Implement modern limb salvage techniques for peripheral arterial disease (PAD), integrating covered stents, DCBs, and bypass options.

• Incorporate emerging technologies, such as medical AI applications, 3D printing, and telemedicine, to optimize patient care and clinical workflows.

3. Target Audience

Best for vascular surgeons and interventionalists who want updates on endovascular techniques, aortic repair, and limb salvage strategies.

This course is designed for primary care providers, cardiologists, interventionalists, vascular surgeons, and other interested healthcare professionals who provide primary care services.
