COURSE DESCRIPTION
This 2 1/2 day course highlights interventional cardiology topics and information with practical application in studying for board certification in interventional cardiology. The course covers basic aspects of interventional cardiology, including catheterization laboratory equipment, radiation physics and safety, pharmacology, and procedural planning and performance. Specific patient lesion and procedural characteristics are highlighted including a review of challenging cases.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This course is primarily intended for cardiologists and cardiovascular fellows preparing for the ABIM Interventional Cardiology certification/recertification exam. However, this course also provides a focused state-of-the-art review of interventional cardiology topics for all cardiovascular practitioners and trainees.

LIVESTREAM PARTICIPATION
Livestream participation is to be viewed during the livestreaming hours posted for the course. This course is not intended, nor approved, as an on-demand learning activity.

Dr. Joel Robbins did his undergraduate studies at Indiana University, graduating in 1994 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. He did basic science research and completed graduate level courses in Neuroscience at Washington University in St. Louis upon graduation from college. In 2000, he received his medical degree from Rush University graduating in the top 15% of his medical school class. Dr. Robbins completed his internal medicine residency in 2003 at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. In 2001, he received the Robert Winter Resident Teacher Award. Remaining at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, he completed his fellowship in cardiovascular diseases in 2006 and an additional fellowship in interventional cardiology in 2007. Dr. Robbins has multiple publications in peer review journals and has helped coauthor medical book chapters.

Nikhil Joshi, MD brings his expertise in interventional cardiology, peripheral intervention, and cardiovascular disease to the Texoma community. Dr. Joshi believes in prevention and comprehensive cardiovascular treatment. He provides expert diagnosis and management of chronic conditions while also providing advanced intervention to treat acute cardiovascular conditions. He welcomes new patients at his office in Sherman, Texas.

Dr. Joshi is fellowship trained and board-certified in both general and interventional cardiology. After earning his doctorate in medicine at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Michigan, he moved to Texas. His extensive experience first began at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio in Internal Medicine. Then he completed two fellowships, first at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio and then at Baylor Scott and White in Temple, Texas. He has trained in one of the top clinical programs in the state and has mentored several physicians in advanced peripheral intervention.

The first year of the program is designed to train the pediatric cardiologist in Adult Cardiology or train the adult cardiologist in the principles of Pediatric Cardiology. Time is spent in the beginning on Inpatient Cardiology rotations and Adult Cardiology outpatient clinic rotations. Afterwards, rotations in each of the other cardiac subspecialties is pursued. The Adult Congenital outpatient cardiology clinic experience occurs on Thursdays throughout each rotation to give a consistent experience in managing these patients.

For the trainee with an Adult Cardiology background, time will be spent in the Pediatric Cardiology outpatient clinic and Pediatric Cardiology consult rotations to help gain insight into unrepaired Congenital Heart Disease and the perspective of the Pediatric Cardiologist.

Fellows will be expected to organize a monthly ACHD didactic conference containing topics relevant to Adult Congenital Cardiology and General Cardiology certification. A holographic projector is used for cardiology teaching during conferences.

The second year of fellowship continues through each of the cardiac subspecialties and allows the fellow more independence in completing Adult Congenital consultations. Multiple selections for elective rotations are available to augment previous experience. Additional rotations are available at outside institutions but must be arranged with the program director as far in advance as possible.

The Cardiac Intensive Care rotation is designed for the fellow to develop expertise in the acute and chronic medical management of adults recovering from congenital and coronary surgery. While on this rotation, fellows will learn the fundamentals of postoperative management.

Fellows participate in daily morning rounds with the Intensive Care practitioners, residents and critical care attending, reviewing physical findings, laboratory results and management plans for each patient. The fellow will educate other learners on the team and provide daily management plans for the postoperative patient in concert with the CT surgery team.

Fellows spend one month in the ICU in the first year, and those who are interested can seek out additional months. Adult Cardiology fellows will spend time in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit learning how postoperative pediatric cardiac surgery differs from Adult cardiac surgery.

The goal of the consult service rotation, undertaken in both years, is to ensure that the fellow develops the skill to provide Adult Cardiology, Pediatric Cardiology, and Adult Congenital cardiac consultative services. Emphasis will be placed upon adult congenital patients and the experience in the Pediatric Cardiology division is to help familiarize the ACHD fellow with the original pathophysiology that ACHD patients started out with. All inpatient ACHD consults will be directed to the ACHD fellow except on weekends and nights, where the consult will be initially staffed by the general cardiology fellow on call and the ACHD fellow will complete the consult the next day.

The task of integrating information from all sources will be emphasized, to create the best possible care plan for the adult congenital inpatient. The fellow will assess at least 10 pregnant women with adult congenital heart disease throughout the fellowship. The fellow will participate in the postoperative cardiac management of at least 20 congenital surgeries, and at least 10 non-cardiac surgeries.

The fellow is challenged to learn how a congenitally malformed heart first manifests as an infant, and its implications decades down the line as an Adult congenital patient. Fellows will be rotating alongside Adult Cardiology Fellows (PGY4-6).

Trainees participate in daily arrhythmia rounds, all outpatient arrhythmia visits, pacemaker clinic, EP consult service, intracardiac electrophysiology studies and operative and catheter ablation procedures. Fellows will be rotating alongside Adult Cardiology Fellows (PGY4-6).

Fellows are expected to attend all adult congenital cardiac catheterizations, and potentially assist with the procedure if interested. Additional experience in peripheral intervention, Mitraclip, and transcatheter aortic and pulmonic valve implantation can be arranged if interested, in conjunction with the interventional cardiology fellows.

During the echocardiography laboratory rotation, fellows acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to correctly perform and interpret transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography. Fellows will participate in a minimum of 150 transthoracic echocardiograms and a minimum of 20 transesophageal echocardiograms. The experience will be shared with the general cardiology fellows. The primary task of the ACHD fellow is to develop proficiency in echocardiographic diagnosis of Adult Congenital Heart Disease (rather than General Cardiology diagnostics).
