Cardiovascular Atherosclerosis: Prediction, Prevention and Management (May 17, 2025)
OVERVIEW
Cardiovascular Atherosclerosis: Prediction, Prevention and Management is organized by Scripps Conference Services & CME and will be held on May 17, 2025 at San Diego Marriott La Jolla, La Jolla, California, United States of America.
Conference Overview:
Despite notable advances in management, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and its major clinical manifestations remains a leading cause of both morbidity and mortality worldwide. In the United States alone, ASCVD is the leading cause of death in most racial and ethnic populations and is estimated to cost more than $200 billion per year due to medications, healthcare service utilization, and productivity losses. Many of these human and economic costs are largely attributable to poor implementation of prevention strategies in adults and failure to control ASCVD risk factors using available medications and lifestyle interventions. The Scripps Cardiovascular Atherosclerosis conference is designed to assist clinicians in the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management of ASCVD among patients in their clinical practices as well as to promote increased awareness of prudent lifestyle and dietary choices to improve patient outcomes.
Educational Objectives:
After attending this live activity, participants should be able to:
- Identify effective treatments, including lifestyle modifications, for managing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
- Evaluate current guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) options and emerging strategies for managing cardiovascular disease.
- Identify the unique risk factors, symptoms, and treatment considerations associated with cardiovascular disease in women.
- Describe novel treatment approaches and assess the role of renal denervation in the management of treatment-resistant hypertension.
- Incorporate evidence-based practices in clinical settings for diagnosing, managing, and treating peripheral artery disease.
