Overview
Radcliffe Medical Education, is proud to bring to you this roundtable series which is designed to equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to identify high-risk patients indicative of worsening HF and to implement effective management strategies. Watch Dr Javed Butler (Baylor Scott & White Health, Dallas, US); Dr Shelley Zieroth (University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, CA) and Prof Gianluigi Savarese (Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, SE) as they go through a comprehensive exploration of validated assessment tools, prognostic evaluations and emerging treatments.
In support of improving patient care, this activity has been planned and implemented by Radcliffe Cardiology and i3Health. i3 Health is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.
i3 Health and Radcliffe Medical Education planners, reviewers, and managers have nothing to disclosure.
i3 Health and Radcliffe have mitigated all relevant financial relationships.
The live version of this roundtable was accredited, the on-demand version is not.

Part 1
Case Studies
Review the case studies on worsening heart failure recorded by Prof Gianluigi Savarese and Dr Javed Butler, prior to the roundtable recording. The faculty will discuss the results during session one of the roundtable.
Part 2
Session 1 - Complex Patient Cases
This first session will see the faculty review their own patient cases detailing the challenging authentic worsening HF cases across multiple settings. The faculty evaluate each case, discussing risk factors, treatment decisions, and providing clinical pearls.
