Mayo Clinic Cardiovascular Board Review 2018-2019 (CME Videos)

+ Description:

Mayo Clinic Cardiovascular Review Course for Boards and Recertification (CVBR) provides the internist and cardiologist with an overview of all aspects of cardiovascular medicine. Well-known experts in each field will give in-depth didactics on state-of-the-art subjects in cardiovascular medicine. This review course is designed specifically to prepare the cardiovascular specialist for the cardiovascular boards; it will also provide the internist or practicing cardiologist with an update on the latest knowledge and advances in cardiovascular medicine. The Echo Focus Session is part of the enduring program as well. Please Note: The Echo Focus portion is “bonus” material and not intended for use for studying for the boards.
The Online Board Review course is delivered through an online personalized learning portal enabling learners to take a pre-test to identify areas of strength and weakness and then directing their learning with a personalized study guide that concentrates solely on areas where they need reinforcement. Learners can view videos from the live course, listen to streaming audio presentations, review learning objectives, journal citations, guidelines and board pearls, take notes on PowerPoint slides, take pre- and post-tests and more. This comprehensive online course will give you 365 days of access to a personalized and adaptive online learning curriculum that will save study time, give you confidence to pass the exam, and most importantly enable you to bring the most current medical knowledge back to your daily practice.
