This book is a unique, comprehensive board review dedicated solely to preventive cardiology. This volume is a companion work to the ASPC Manual of Preventive Cardiology. The book is comprised of a series of questions, which address a core issue in preventative cardiology. Each question will be accompanied with a correct answer key as well as a discussion of why the chosen response is correct, and the others are incorrect. Answers will be supported by illustrations and discussion of contemporary literature when applicable. The book also provides references for area of additional study. This book contains questions written by many of the original authors who contributed to the ASPC Manual of Preventive Cardiology. This book, along with the ASPC Manual of Preventive Cardiology, will become a standard teaching text for the ASPC Experts Course in Preventive Cardiology.
The ASPC Board Review of Preventive Cardiology will be a valuable resource for cardiologists and primary care providers (including internists, family physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants) who seek additional training and expertise in cardiovascular disease prevention.
