Dinner Program: Cardio-Renal Implications in the Cardiac Cath Lab: Optimizing Long-Term Outcomes in High Risk Patients

Sponsored by GE Healthcare

As the number of comorbidities and complexity of disease increases in patients across the US, the risk for contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) also increases. In this educational symposium, the cardio-renal implications in the cardiac cath lab will be discussed as well as risk mitigation strategies for optimizing long-term outcomes in high risk patients and complex interventions.
