The target audience for this medical event for interventional cardiologists, radiologists, clinical cardiologists, scientists, vascular medicine specialists, cardiac and vascular surgeons, nurse practitioners, cath lab technicians, and other healthcare professionals with a special interest in the field of interventional and vascular medicine. Activity Goals : The overall goal of this activity is to improve the competence and performance of our target audience by delivering cutting-edge educational content that showcases the latest advances in current therapies and clinical research. We hope that our longstanding commitment to lifesaving innovation will translate into improved patient care. Learning Objectives : By the end of the symposium, participants should be able to: * Apply the results from important clinical trials and evidence-based medicine to guide the management of patients with atherosclerosis and structural heart disease * Incorporate new interventional technologies and procedures into the care of patients with complex coronary and endovascular disease * Integrate advances in diagnostic evaluation and therapeutics into the treatment of patients with carotid and peripheral arterial disease * Implement appropriate pharmacologic management in the care of patients undergoing diagnostic arteriography and interventional therapies before, during, and after catheterization * Identify new interventional technologies and propose appropriate applications for patients with cardiovascular disease

Vascular Interventional Advances Annual Conference (VIVA) is organized by Vascular Interventional Advances (VIVA) and would be held during Nov 11 - 15, 2017 at Wynn Las Vegas, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America. TARGET AUDIENCE : The target audience for this CME activity is physicians who specialize in, among other areas, interventional cardiology, interventional radiology, vascular medicine, vascular surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery, podiatry and neuroradiology, as well as fellows, and allied health professionals (including nurses, vascular clinic staff, endovascular operating room staff, catheterization laboratory and angiography suite staff, nurse practitioners, vascular technologists, and physicians assistants). LEARNING OBJECTIVES : At the conclusion of the course, the targeted learners should be able: * Understand the current indications, risks, complications, and outcome of medical, interventional, and surgical therapies for the treatment of peripheral arterial and venous diseases. * Incorporate advanced medical, endovascular, and surgical techniques and approaches into their own practices to improve the care and outcomes of patients. * Implement high quality guidelines based programs to improve the early identification and care of patients with non- cardiac vascular conditions. * Increase knowledge in critical decision-making and the comprehensive spectrum of care for patients with stroke and intracranial and extracranial carotid artery disease. * Improve the delivery of balanced and scientifically valid vascular care in accordance with expert opinion and practice. * Utilize strategies learned from the meeting including endovascular technologies, open surgical techniques, and hybrid approaches, for the treatment of patients with aortic diseases. * To gain and employ decision making and procedural strategies and techniques in patients with aortic and visceral aneurysms, dissections, deep venous thrombosis, venous insufficiency and pu

Ropinirole, bromocriptine, and piribedil are associated with the highest incidence rates of adverse effects in Parkinson's disease, according to a review published online Sept. 4 in CNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics. Bao-Dong Li, from the Hebei Province Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine in China, and colleagues conducted a systematic review to compare the adverse effects of 11 drugs used to treat Parkinson's disease. Data were included from 24 randomized controlled trials. The researchers found that, compared with placebo, the incidence of adverse reactions of ropinirole, rotigotine, entacapone, and sumanirole were higher in terms of nausea. The incidence rates of dyskinesia side effects were highest with ropinirole, while in terms of patients' hallucination, pramipexole was significantly higher. The surface under the cumulative ranking curve values of all drugs showed that the incidence of adverse reaction of pergolide was relatively high (nausea, 83.5 percent; hallucination, 79.8 percent); the incidence of dyskinesia and somnolence was higher with ropinirole (80.5 and 69.4 percent); in terms of dizziness, the incidence of adverse reaction of piribedil was higher (67.0 percent), and in terms of constipation, the incidence of bromocriptine was relatively high (62.3 percent). "In addition to current forms of treatment, we hope that our results can produce useful information for further development of new drugs to treat Parkinson's disease based on the natures of each drug," the authors write.

Clinically validated data is a valuable asset to pharmaceutical organization. Data from the clinical trials are vital to the whole clinical development procedure. Value of any drug cannot be properly noticed until the clinical data is systematically organised, simply accessible and cleaned.
