Time Presentation Title Faculty 7:30am - 8:00am 8:00am - 8:15am Registration Heart-healthy Breakfast Welcome The WHY: Stories from the Heart New Stroke Scales for Identifying Large Vessel Strokes Heart-healthy Breakfast & Networking Lunch sponsored by Dignity Health St. Rose Dominican Hospitals Ron Loomis, RN, BSN, CPHQ Senior Regional Director American Heart Association/ American Stroke Association Melanie Baldwin & Kate Eggington Volunteers, Heart Ambassadors American Heart Association/ American Stroke Association 8:15am - 9:00am Acute strokes due to large vessel occlusion are among the most serious types of stroke, with a high mortality rate. Endovascular treatment is an effective treatment for large vessel occlusions and can reduce mortality and disability. Proper treatment of this time-sensitive condition begins with trained first responders who can identify severe stroke and bring the patient to the facility best-equipped to treat it. Novel Oral Anticoagulants and Reversal Agents TJ Smith, NR EMT-P EMS Training Officer City of Henderson Fire Department 9:00am - 9:45am Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are increasingly used in clinical practice, but lack of commercially available reversal agents is a major barrier for mainstream use of these therapies. Reviewing pharmacokinetic data may help health care providers determine a safe time from last dose to perform a procedure or give a fibrinolytic medication for an ischemic stroke. Ragini S. Bhakta, Pharm.D., BCPS Clinical Pharmacist Dignity Health St. Rose Dominican Hospitals

Therapies for Advanced Heart Failure Left ventricular devices and/or heart transplant patients will receive appropriate follow up and care by providers knowledgeable in transplant medicine. The Management of Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke Patients Break Left Atrial Appendage Closure Device (percutaneous) does not require major cardiac surgery and has a faster recovery rate. It is a proven alternative to long-term warfarin therapy for stroke risk reduction in patients with atrial fibrillation. Outpatient Medical Management of the Atrial Fibrillation Patient Overview of the medical management of the AFib patient.
