Programme Introduction

About this programme

🩺 Medical CME

✅ Case-Based Learning

📊 Guideline-Aligned

Cardiology Grand Rounds is a case-based continuing medical education programme built around real-world clinical scenarios in acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, arrhythmia, echocardiographic interpretation, and valvular heart disease. Each case is framed the way it would present on the wards or in clinic, asking the learner to work through history, examination findings, investigations, and decision points rather than memorising isolated facts.

The programme addresses a genuine gap in ongoing clinical education: cardiovascular disease remains one of the most common reasons for hospital admission and specialist referral, and management pathways continue to evolve as evidence accumulates. Staying current with the ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 guideline updates on risk stratification in acute coronary syndromes, heart failure phenotyping, and arrhythmia management is central to the physician’s and resident’s ongoing practice.

TerraLeap structures each Grand Rounds session around a discussion-driven format: a clinical vignette is presented, key diagnostic and management questions are raised, and the reasoning is unpacked step by step with reference to current guideline recommendations. Echocardiographic images and rhythm strips are woven into relevant cases so pattern recognition is practised alongside conceptual understanding rather than taught in isolation.

By the end of the programme, learners will have worked through a broad spread of cardiology presentations and be able to relate their own case experience back to a structured, guideline-informed framework for cardiovascular case discussion.

Programme Scope

What this programme covers

This Grand Rounds programme covers the core case categories a practicing cardiologist or internal medicine physician encounters, framed around current guideline evidence.

🫀

Acute Coronary Syndromes

Case discussions spanning STEMI, NSTEMI, and unstable angina, with emphasis on risk stratification and guideline-based triage reasoning.

💓

Heart Failure

Working through HFrEF, HFmrEF, and HFpEF case presentations, including phenotyping and staging discussions aligned to ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 updates.

⚡

Arrhythmia

Rhythm-strip based cases covering atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, and ventricular arrhythmia recognition and reasoning.

🔎

Echocardiography

Structured review of echocardiographic findings in valvular and structural heart disease as they relate to case-based decision points.

❤️

Valvular Disease

Case discussions on aortic and mitral valve pathology, including reasoning on timing of intervention drawn from current guidance.

📋

Guideline Alignment

Each case is mapped against relevant ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 recommendations so learners see how evidence translates into case reasoning.

🧠

Clinical Reasoning

A structured discussion format that builds a repeatable approach to working through undifferentiated cardiovascular presentations.

Learning Objectives

What you will achieve

This programme is built around active case discussion rather than passive review, so each objective reflects a reasoning skill rather than an isolated fact to recall.

By working through a broad set of cardiology cases, learners will strengthen their ability to reason from presentation to plan in line with current ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 guidance.

Analyse acute coronary syndrome presentations and apply risk-stratification reasoning consistent with ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 guidance.

Differentiate heart failure phenotypes and relate case findings to staging and evaluation frameworks.

Interpret arrhythmia case presentations, including atrial fibrillation and ventricular rhythm disturbances, within a structured diagnostic approach.

Evaluate echocardiographic findings discussed in case format and connect them to the underlying clinical question being asked.

Discuss valvular heart disease case scenarios, including reasoning around when specialist referral or further evaluation is warranted.

Apply current ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 guideline concepts to real-world case discussion rather than isolated recall.

Recognise red-flag features across cardiovascular case presentations that shift the differential or urgency of work-up.

Build a structured, case-based approach to cardiovascular clinical reasoning that transfers directly to day-to-day practice.

Target Audience

Who can enroll

Cardiology Grand Rounds is designed specifically for cardiologists, internal medicine physicians, and residents who regularly encounter acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, arrhythmia, and valvular disease in clinical practice.

The case-based format suits physicians who want structured, guideline-aligned discussion of the presentations they already see, rather than a general refresher — from residents building foundational reasoning to consultants keeping pace with ACC/AHA and ESC 2024 updates.

🩺

Cardiologists and cardiology fellows seeking structured case discussion aligned to current guidelines.

🏥

Internal medicine physicians who manage cardiovascular presentations as part of general practice.

🎓

Residents and trainees building a systematic approach to cardiac case reasoning.

🚑

Emergency medicine physicians who triage and initially manage acute coronary syndrome and arrhythmia presentations.

📚

Practicing physicians pursuing continuing medical education credit in cardiovascular care.

🔬

Clinicians preparing for cardiology case-based assessments or specialist recertification discussions.
