134. Exploring the Newest Cardiovascular Guidelines

On this episode, Margaret “Midge” Bowers returns to NP Pulse to discuss all things cardiovascular, with a focus on the newest atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure guidelines. Bowers and Sophia Thomas also discuss new medications, the importance of communication between patient and provider — and why it is so necessary for NPs to “treat the person, not the number.”  If you are interested in learning more from Midge on this subject, listen to NP Pulse episode 106.
