    Pamphlets available on:

    Vascular Testing and You
    Abdominal Vascular Arterial Disease
    Peripheral Arterial Disease
    Cerebrovascular Disease
    Venous Disease

    These five pocket-size booklets describe, in terms your patient can understand, the nature, significance, and diagnosis of vascular disease, the value of noninvasive examinations, and what is involved in a vascular exam. Sample copies are available for download.

    heart center online

    excellent source of patient-teaching educational materials on a rich variety of cardiovascular subjects: articles, videos, animations, illustrations. requires registration, but registration is free.

    heart-health educator

    free online courses. the heart-health educator courses will help you gain control of your health. each course is divided into short, easy-to-absorb lessons, and each lesson is followed by a brief quiz to test your knowledge.

    view the video and/or illustration to help visualize how the condition occurs. after completing the course, you will have the opportunity to learn more about the topic.
