Title:  Cardiac Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD)

A Rarely Diagnosed, Common Cause of Angina and Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF)

Learning Objectives:

· Recognize cardiac microvascular dysfunction (CMD) as a common but frequently underdiagnosed cause of cardiac ischemia, angina, and HFpEF in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease.

· Differentiate the clinical presentation of CMD from obstructive coronary artery disease in patients presenting with exertional angina and ischemic symptoms.

· Apply appropriate diagnostic strategies, including the use and interpretation of cardiac biomarkers (troponin, BNP, and D-dimer), to evaluate patients with suspected CMD following non-obstructive cardiac catheterization findings.

· Integrate current evidence-based management and treatment approaches for CMD into primary care practice to improve patient outcomes.

· Assess prognosis and ongoing care considerations for patients with CMD in order to reduce morbidity and mortality.

About UCMS-TMA Continuing Medical Education Programs:

UCMS-TMA Virtual CME Programs offer physicians in the Upper Cumberland Region an opportunity to lead clinical updates relevant to health care delivery on the Cumberland Plateau. Programs are provided as a public service to the health care community. Expenses related to CME documentation and processing are covered by dues-paying physician members of the UCMS-TMA. Invitations to register for a CME meeting are sent to our subscribers by email from the admin at ucms-tma.org.

There is no fee or membership requirement to attend, however, both registration and attendance are needed to receive a CME certificate of attendance. Registration will ask for your name and personal email address. It will also ask if you plan to attend the hybrid meeting in-person at CRMC. A link to join the Zoom meeting will be sent to the name and email address used at registration.
