Released on December 12, 2023, this advanced-level course provides a structured review of the full spectrum of cardiovascular medicine, including coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, arrhythmias, valvular heart disease, vascular medicine, congenital heart disease, echocardiography, cardiovascular pharmacology, and thromboembolic disorders.

Whether preparing for the ABIM Cardiovascular Disease Board Examination or seeking a comprehensive clinical update, this Mayo Clinic program delivers practical, evidence-based education that bridges board preparation with real-world patient care.

Course Overview

Cardiovascular medicine continues to evolve through new clinical guidelines, breakthrough therapies, advanced imaging technologies, and landmark clinical trials. Physicians must maintain a strong understanding of both foundational cardiovascular principles and modern evidence-based management strategies.

The Mayo Clinic Cardiovascular Online Board Review 2023 offers a complete review of core cardiovascular topics while integrating clinical reasoning, case-based discussions, and board-focused teaching. Through a personalized study platform, learners can identify strengths and weaknesses using pre-assessments, focus on high-yield content, and reinforce knowledge through post-tests and question banks.

This course is ideal for physicians preparing for board certification, recertification, fellowship examinations, or those seeking a comprehensive cardiovascular CME update.
