The webcast, titled Clinical Conundrum: Use of COX-2 Inhibitors, nsNSAIDs and ASA in Patients with Cardiovascular Risk, provides education to meet the needs of primary care physicians and rheumatologists.
The webcast is presented by Dr. Vibeke Strand from Stanford University with Dr. William B. White of the University of Connecticut and R. Andrew Moore, DSc, from the University of Oxford. Supported by an educational grant from Pfizer, the programme is designed to help physicians maintain and develop their knowledge, skills and practice.
