Cardiovascular Clinical Trials (PDF)

The pace of therapeutic advances in the treatment of
cardiovascular diseases is rapid, and new clinically-relevant
information appears with such frequency that it can be extremely
challenging for clinicians to keep up.

Still, knowledge and interpretation of major clinical trials is
crucial for the range of clinicians who manage cardiovascular
patients, especially since important trial evidence often needs to
be implemented soon after it is published.
