About The Meeting
Sponsored by Bakersfield Memorial Hospital’s Central California Heart Institute, Update in Cardiology 2010 is a half-day seminar focusing on the latest trends in heart and vascular care. The seminar will provide participants the opportunity to enhance their knowledge and skills with all facets of cardiology and will discuss a variety of highly relevant topics.

This symposium is designed for interventional cardiologists, clinical cardiologists, radiologists, vascular medicine specialists, surgeons, and other health care professionals engaged in the diagnosis, treatment and care management of cardiac patients.
Update is sponsored by Bakersfield Memorial Hospital’s Central California Heart Institute and partially funded through educational grants from commercial supporters. It is the policy of CCHI to ensure balance, independence, objectivity, and scientific rigor in all of its sponsored educational programs. Commercial support from industry does not influence educational content, faculty selection, and/or faculty presentations, and, therefore, does not compromise the scientific integrity of the educational activity.
