Houston Methodist Cardiology for the Non-Cardiologist 2026 — the heart, explained for every clinician
Houston Methodist Cardiology for the Non-Cardiologist 2026, the 10th annual edition from the DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center, gives primary care, internal medicine, emergency and critical care clinicians the cardiology they need day to day. Thirty-two videos with subtitle files — about 8 hours 10 minutes — cover ECG reading, AF and anticoagulation, coronary disease and stents, heart failure, valve therapy, vascular disease, imaging, lipids, women’s heart health and perioperative risk.

What you’ll be able to do
- Read an ECG with the fundamentals every non-cardiologist needs
- Choose stroke prevention in AF and know when to refer for ablation
- Manage antiplatelet therapy after PCI and understand CABG versus PCI
- Decide which stress test or imaging study to order
- Use CAC scores and lipoprotein(a) under the 2026 lipid guidance
- Judge when a patient needs cardiac testing before surgery
Inside the course
Coronary disease, valves and rhythm
Stents from restenosis to precision PCI, CABG, antiplatelet therapy after PCI and a revascularisation panel; catheter-based mitral and tricuspid therapy, valve-in-valve, TAVR; ECG fundamentals, AF ablation referral and AF stroke prevention with wearables and LAA management.
Houston Methodist Cardiology for the Non-Cardiologist 2026 vascular and imaging sessions
Aortic aneurysm, chronic venous disease and DVT, AAA and PAD from screening to revascularisation; cardiac CT, PET, MRI and echo, stress testing, and how AI is changing imaging workflow and pre-operative assessment.
Heart failure, prevention and special populations
Pulmonary hypertension, GDMT, advanced heart failure devices and surgery, adult congenital disease, women’s cardiovascular health through pregnancy and menopause, digital health, dyslipidemia and the 2026 lipid guideline updates.
