This activity will provide an overview of the relevant claims data, peer-reviewed literature and professional guidelines relating to indications of procedures. This will include a look at the intent, limitations, and quality of guidelines. The purpose is to present and substantiate a set of concrete recommendations to reduce risk for both patient and cardiologist in a rapidly changing practice environment.
