PROGRAM PURPOSE

These lectures are intended to provide medical care providers interested in the practice of clinical cardiology, the prevention and management of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and lipid management a review of the clinical applicability and evidence-base for the most recent standards of care in diagnosis and therapy. These health-care providers function as the captain of the healthcare team in the outpatient and inpatient setting. By coordinating resources amongst mid-level providers, nurses, pharmacists, medical assistants and administrative support staff, the primary care provider can help achieve optimal clinical outcomes for their patients afflicted by cardiovascular diseases. To fulfill this mission, the provider must understand the risks and benefits, costs, clinical pitfalls and limitations of evaluation and treatment strategies advocated by current practice standards and guidelines.

Assessment of Acute Chest Pain
- Apply appropriate risk stratification of the chest pain patient to deliver best clinical outcomes and optimally use health care resources
Management of Acute Coronary Artery Syndrome
- Deliver best clinical outcomes and optimally use health care resources by rapid and cost-effective triage of patients presenting with acute coronary artery syndromes.
Management of Congestive Heart Failure
- Deliver best clinical outcomes and optimally use health care resources by understanding novel cardiac imaging modalites and pharmacotherapies available to clinicians in both the inpatient and outpatient management of congestive heart failure
Management of Venous Thromboembolism: DVT and Pulmonary Embolism
- Introduce novel treatment strategies for the prevention and management, that incorporate outpatient and inpatient options for therapy, and reduce morbidity and mortality
Cardiac Risk Assessment: Risk calculators and Cardiac Imaging
- Reduce risk to patients of major adverse cardiovascular events through early detection and institution of evidence-based treatment strategies.
Management of Hyperlipidemia
- Apply evidence-based criteria to incorporate lifestyle interventions and all available pharmacotherapy options for patients at risk for, or those with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease.
Anticoagulation for Atrial Fibrillation
- Avoid unnecessary use of anticoagulant therapies in patients at low-risk for thromboembolic events, and optimize use of newer and safer direct oral anticoagulant therapies.

PORTS OF CALL

San Juan, Puerto Rico

San Juan is one of the most rewarding and historically significant ports in the Caribbean, and its greatest asset is proximity. Your ship docks at the edge of Old San Juan, a 500-year-old walled city that is a destination in its own right. Forget the organized bus tours; this is a port best explored on foot.

Step off the ship and you are immediately immersed in the atmosphere of blue cobblestone streets and pastel-hued colonial architecture. Your primary objective should be exploring the two massive Spanish citadels that bookend the old city. Start with Castillo San Cristóbal, the largest Spanish fort in the Americas, then enjoy the scenic one-mile walk along the city wall to the iconic Castillo San Felipe del Morro, which has guarded the harbor entrance for centuries. The scale and preservation of these UNESCO World Heritage sites are genuinely impressive.

Beyond the forts, the joy of San Juan is in the wandering. Discover shaded plazas, artisan shops on Calle del Cristo, and the famous Fortaleza Street. For a taste of authentic Puerto Rican cuisine, find a local spot for *mofongo* (a savory dish of mashed plantains) or enjoy a classic piña colada at Barrachina, one of the bars that claims to have invented it. While the famous beaches of Condado and Isla Verde are an option, they require a taxi and can consume valuable time. For a port day, the tangible history, vibrant culture, and culinary delights within the city walls offer a more than fulfilling experience.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

St. Kitts offers a compelling look into the Caribbean's colonial past, anchored by one of the most impressive historical sites in the region. The main event here is the Brimstone Hill Fortress, a massive, astonishingly well-preserved British fortification and UNESCO World Heritage site. Known as the "Gibraltar of the West Indies," its cannons and stone walls command breathtaking panoramic views of the sea and neighboring islands. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in history or simply a spectacular viewpoint.

For a more relaxed perspective, the St. Kitts Scenic Railway offers a unique journey along old sugarcane lines, providing a leisurely tour of the island's coastline and villages. If a classic beach day is your goal, head to the southern peninsula. Here, beaches like Cockleshell Bay and South Friars Bay offer calm waters, soft sand, and a string of lively beach bars with excellent views of the neighboring island of Nevis.

Back in Basseterre, the town itself is a compact grid of colonial architecture, centered around the small but photogenic Circus. While the town is pleasant for a short stroll, the island's true treasures lie just beyond. St. Kitts delivers a rewarding day for those who prioritize history and natural scenery over extensive shopping.

At Sea - Cruising

Kralendijk (Bonaire), Antilles

Bonaire's identity is inextricably linked to the sea. The entire coastline is a protected national marine park, a pioneering effort in conservation that has preserved one of the Caribbean's most vibrant underwater ecosystems. This makes world-class snorkeling and diving remarkably accessible, often just steps from the shore. The main town, Kralendijk, is a clean, quiet, and walkable port. Its main street, Kaya Grandi, is lined with colorful Dutch-Caribbean architecture housing boutiques and galleries, while waterfront cafes offer a tranquil spot to watch sailboats in the bay.

While the town is pleasant, the island's true allure lies in its natural state. A short taxi ride can take you to a nearby beach for an easy snorkel, or to the southern tip to see the striking contrast of white salt pans, blue water, and the iconic pink flamingos of the Pekelmeer Sanctuary. Bonaire is not a destination for high-energy thrills or extensive historical sites; it is a place to slow down and immerse yourself in a pristine natural environment. It offers a genuine, low-key Caribbean experience for those who appreciate the beauty of the world beneath the waves.

Oranjestad, Aruba

Aruba presents a unique Caribbean landscape, trading lush jungle for an arid, desert-like beauty of cacti, rock formations, and its iconic, wind-swept divi-divi trees. The cruise port docks directly in the capital, Oranjestad, a clean and walkable city defined by its brightly colored Dutch colonial architecture. A complimentary open-air trolley makes a convenient loop through the main downtown area, which is filled with high-end retailers and local boutiques.

While the city is charming, Aruba’s primary draw is its magnificent coastline. A short taxi or bus ride north of the port reveals two of the Caribbean’s most celebrated beaches. Eagle Beach is a vast expanse of pristine white sand, consistently ranked among the world's best, offering a more tranquil atmosphere. Adjacent Palm Beach is livelier, lined with resorts, beach bars, and a full spectrum of water sports.

For those seeking an alternative to the beach, the island’s interior offers a compelling look at its rugged terrain. A visit to Arikok National Park showcases a dramatic coastline and caves with ancient Arawak petroglyphs. Closer to the port, the Casibari Rock Formations provide an easily accessible opportunity to climb among massive tonalite boulders for panoramic island views. Aruba offers a polished and safe environment, balancing world-class beach relaxation with accessible and distinctive natural scenery.

Bridgetown, Barbados

Barbados presents a polished and substantial Caribbean experience, anchored by its capital, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison offer a genuine sense of place, where British colonial architecture stands alongside vibrant Bajan life. The city core is compact enough to explore, with landmarks like the Parliament Buildings and the Careenage marina providing a backdrop that feels more like a historic town than a simple beach stop.

Beyond the city, the island's offerings are diverse. For a unique natural wonder, Harrison's Cave offers a stunning underground tram tour through crystallized limestone caverns. For a taste of the island's most famous export, a visit to the Mount Gay Rum Distillery provides both a history lesson and a tasting. Of course, the beaches are world-class. Just a short taxi ride from the port, Carlisle Bay is a magnificent crescent of white sand with calm, turquoise water, perfect for swimming and snorkeling over several shipwrecks teeming with marine life. For a more serene scene, the west coast, known as the "Platinum Coast," is lined with idyllic stretches like Paynes Bay and Mullins Beach.

Barbados is not a rugged, off-the-beaten-path destination; it is well-developed and organized. Taxis are plentiful and regulated (though it's always wise to confirm the fare beforehand). This makes it an excellent port for independent exploration, offering a rewarding balance of accessible history, natural beauty, and sophisticated relaxation.

St. John's, Antigua

St. John's is the vibrant gateway to Antigua, an island that offers a compelling blend of classic Caribbean leisure and significant British naval history. While the port city itself is a bustling hub of colorful colonial-era architecture and duty-free shopping at Heritage Quay, the island's true treasures require a short journey.

For anyone with an interest in history, the essential destination is Nelson's Dockyard. Located in English Harbour (a scenic 30-minute taxi ride), this meticulously restored 18th-century naval base is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only continuously working Georgian dockyard in the world. It’s a living museum where you can walk the same cobblestones as Admiral Nelson, explore the Dockyard Museum, and enjoy lunch at a waterside café. For a breathtaking perspective, arrange for your driver to take you up to the Shirley Heights lookout for one of the most iconic panoramic views in the Caribbean.

Of course, Antigua is legendary for its beaches. While the claim of 365 beaches is a charming piece of local lore, you only need one for a perfect day. Dickenson Bay is a popular choice, offering calm waters, beach bars, and water sports. For a more serene experience, ask a driver to take you to the powdery sands of Valley Church Beach or Ffryes Beach on the southwest coast.

Our advice: Plan your day. The best of Antigua lies beyond the immediate port. A pre-arranged taxi or a shore excursion is the most efficient way to experience the island's unique combination of historical depth and stunning natural beauty.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

St. Maarten offers one of the most distinct experiences in the Caribbean: the chance to visit two countries in a single day. Your ship docks in Philipsburg, the capital of the Dutch side (Sint Maarten), a bustling hub of activity. The town itself is built along a beautiful arc of sand, Great Bay Beach, with a lively boardwalk perfect for a stroll. This is the commercial heart of the island, known for its extensive duty-free shopping, particularly for jewelry, electronics, and local spirits like the iconic Guavaberry Liqueur.

For a complete change of pace, a short taxi ride transports you to the French side (Saint-Martin). Here, the atmosphere shifts to something more akin to the French Riviera. The capital, Marigot, offers a more relaxed vibe with chic boutiques, open-air markets, and charming bistros serving fresh croissants and coffee. For the food-focused traveler, a visit to Grand Case is essential; it’s widely regarded as the culinary capital of the Caribbean, with an impressive collection of world-class restaurants.

Of course, the beaches are a primary draw. While there are dozens to choose from, Maho Beach is a spectacle you won’t forget. It’s not a place for quiet relaxation, but for the unique thrill of watching massive jets land just feet above your head. For a more classic Caribbean beach day, Orient Bay on the French side offers a wide expanse of white sand and turquoise water. St. Maarten’s appeal lies in this choice—you can curate your day to be as high-energy or as relaxed as you wish.

TRIP CANCELLATION

A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
Your parent or child requires hospitalization
You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable
