Presenters
  • Overview

    Despite significant efforts to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) setting, as well as secondary stroke prevention and prevention of ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation, patients remain at risk. In this symposium, faculty will critically evaluate the limitations of current anticoagulation strategies, discuss factor XI inhibitors, assess the latest clinical trials and research, and consider the potential role of factor XI inhibitors in thrombosis and hemostasis. 

  • Commercial Support

    This activity is supported by an independent educational grant from Bristol Myers Squibb and Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine Alliance.

  • Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest

    In accordance with the ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence, Global Learning Collaborative (GLC) requires that individuals in a position to control the content of an educational activity disclose all relevant financial relationships with any ineligible company. GLC mitigates all conflicts of interest to ensure independence, objectivity, balance, and scientific rigor in all its educational programs.

  • Learning Objectives

    Upon completion of this activity, learners should be better able to:

    • Explain the mechanisms of action of current anticoagulant therapies, their impact on specific pathways of the coagulation cascade, and their potential to elevate the risk of serious bleeding events
    • Identify and describe the role of novel coagulation pathways, such as factor XIa inhibition, in the development of safer and more effective anticoagulant therapies
    • Assess the benefits and risks associated with emerging anticoagulant therapies, focusing on their potential to reduce bleeding complications while maintaining efficacy in thromboembolic event prevention
    • Assess the potential of factor XI as a therapeutic target to reduce thrombotic risk while minimizing bleeding complications in patients with acute coronary syndromes
  • Target Audience

    This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of cardiologists and neurologists as well as all other physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, and healthcare providers involved in care of patients requiring anticoagulant therapy to reduce their risk of MACE and stroke.

  • Accreditation and Credit Designation Statements

    In support of improving patient care, Global Learning Collaborative (GLC) is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.

  • Provider(s)/Educational Partner(s)

    It’s about time! Today’s on-the-go learners have minutes to spend on education instead of hours. Total CME is an award-winning, global healthcare education company that strategically pioneers methodology, initiatives, and platforms to meet these time-limited needs. Unlike other medical education companies, Total CME employs a microlearning approach and platform to create outcome-based curricula that motivates HCPs to engage in self-directed point-of-care learning that impacts change in real time. Even while reaching the largest global distribution, we provide the most personalized, seamless learner experience. We’re meeting our busy learners where they are so they can focus on what they want when they need it, ultimately leading to behavior changes that impact clinical practice and empower patients in their own care.
