Appreciating the role of the oral/systemic connection as it relates to the prevention of heart attacks and strokes. Clinical Application: demonstrate how to create/facilitate relationships between the medical and dental community. Learning Objectives: Participants will appreciate the vascular link between periodontal disease and heart attack and stroke risk. The dental professional will be able to elucidate the inflammatory relationship between periodontal pathogens and atherosclerosis. The audience will understand event reality and the general concept of atherosclerosis and vascular inflammation. Biographical Sketch: Amy Doneen, MSN, DNP is an international leader in preventing heart attacks, stroke, and diabetes. She has a strong focus on women s heart health utilizing her skills to define risk assessment and treatment. Since 2002, she has given more than 600 presentations to global medical groups, including to the International Atherosclerosis Society, International Symposium on Atherosclerosis, National Lipid Association Symposium, Women s Heart Symposium, American Heart Association, Berkeley Heart Lab, and Cleveland Heart Lab. Doneen is owner and medical director of the Heart Attack & Stroke Prevention Center in Spokane, Washington and cofounder of the Bale/Doneen Method for heart attack, stroke, and diabetes prevention. She presents AAFP accredited continuing medical education (CME) Preceptorship courses several times a year in cities across the United States, training health care providers in such advanced CVD detection techniques as genetic testing, state-of-the-art ultrasound measurements of major arteries, high-tech heart scans, personalized treatment strategies and fire panel tests for insulin resistance cornerstones of the patented Bale/Doneen Method. Passionate about educating fellow providers about how to save lives, Doneen has been described in a magazine profile as a risk detective because the Bale/Doneen Method s mission is to find the root cause for why patients arteries become inflamed and could ignite future heart attacks and strokes if the

5 fire isn t extinguished early enough. She was co-chair of a national continuing medical education (CME) course for doctors on residual lipid risk in CVD, presented in 20 cities in both 2008 and 2009 and participated in a national Grand Round CME course on metabolic syndrome. Doneen is an adjunct professor at Texas Tech University Health Science Center School of Nursing and has delivered numerous keynote addresses on women s heart health at major medical conferences. She did general undergraduate studies at Western Washington University and Eastern Washington University, and received her Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and Registered Nurse (RN) from Spokane Community College in After working as an registered nurse for several years, she returned to school and received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), Master of Science in Nursing (MSN), Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner (ARNP) degrees from Gonzaga University, graduating summa cum laude in She received her Doctorate Nurse Practitioner (DNP) degree from Gonzaga University in While working on her graduate thesis, she was shocked to discover, through an extensive review of medical literature, how few studies have been done on CVD in women. She also learned that many women at risk for heart attacks and strokes are missed by the current standard of care, with devastating or even fatal consequences. During her graduate studies, she met Dr. Bradley Bale, who had revamped his family medical practice to pioneer state-of-the-art CVD prevention techniques, such as screening patients for early stage vascular disease using electron beam tomography. Doneen created a thesis project using patients in the practice, comparing the widely used Framingham Risk Score, which predicts CVD risk through such factors as age, gender, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and smoking status, against checking patients arteries for calcium deposits--a better method of evaluating future risk for heart attacks and stroke. Out of this collaboration was born the Bale/Doneen Method for prevention of heart attack, stroke, and diabetes. Doneen is an international board member and consultant to decode Genetics and has served on an international advisory board on the utility of carotid intra-medial thickness, an ultrasound test that screens for heart disease by measuring the amount of plaque in neck arteries. She is chair of Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Preventive Cardiovascular Nurses Association, and has served on the steering committee for Healthy U at Deaconess Medical Center. She is on the speakers bureau of Abbott Pharmaceuticals, Cleveland HeartLab, and Berkeley HeartLab. She s a member of the Society of Atherosclerosis, Imaging, Prevention; American Heart Association; American Stroke Association; Coalition for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Peripheral Artery Disease; and National Lipid Association, and others. Doneen has presented her ambulatory research at the International Symposium for Atherosclerosis in Rome, Italy in 2006 and in Boston, in She also presented data at the European Atherosclerotic Society in Helsinki, Finland in 2007 and at National Lipid Association Annual Symposium in New York City, NY, In 2009 and 2010, Doneen was a member of a 12 person international committee, for the definition and clinical utility of cimt with the SAIP Society. In 2007, she was a member of a 4 person National Committee for development and allocation of CME Grand Round presentation on metabolic syndrome. Other participation and presentations at major medical conferences are listed in her online CV.

7 Joel Berg DDS MS Presentation Title: Dental Caries is a Disease: How do I treat the infection, and what new technologies can help me? Synopsis: This course will provide the attendee with the most up-to-date information regarding emerging technologies in pediatric dentistry. Dental caries, the infectious disease that cause cavities, is the most prevalent disease in mankind, and affects 97% of the population in their lifetime. Many children as young as 2 years of age are treated under general anesthesia to take care of the tooth decay that quickly can destroy their baby teeth. This affects eating, speaking and can be dangerous to overall health. Recently, new ways of assessing and dealing with dental caries as an infectious disease have been proposed, and new products have been introduced. It is anticipated that the progression of this most significant technological development in dentistry will do more to change the way dentistry works to treat disease more than anything in recent decades. This course will review the science behind these developments, and will introduce clinically relevant information to health care professionals from a variety of disciplines. Learning Objectives: How to identify kids at risk for cavities as early as 6 months of age, and how to aggressively prevent cavities at a young age. How to examine an infant's or toddler s mouth. How to effect change in parental attitudes toward oral health To discover new diagnostic tools that many disciplines in health care can use to see kids at risk Biographical Sketch: Joel H.
