How to Translate Clinical Trials to the Practice Setting

by Ralph Brindis April 3, 2011 09:04

Tonight, Anthony DeMaria, M.D., M.A.C.C., JACC editor-in-chief, will deliver the 42nd Annual Louis F. Bishop Lecture from 4:45 – 6 p.m in Room 221 in the Convention Center. His lecture discusses a topic of utmost importance to cardiovascular professionals, and one that all ACC.11 & i2 Summit attendees will have to struggle with following the meeting – how do we take the latest clinical trials, with their narrow study populations and design limitations, and apply them to the specific and unique patient sitting before us in our office? It’s a tricky question, and one that I am sure will garner interesting discussion following the presentation. For more about the lecture, read this interview between DeMaria and Cardiology magazine editor Cherie Black in the ACC.11 & i2 Summit Community. I’ll be at the lecture tonight, and I hope you will join me!
