Lipid Disorders and Cardiovascular Risk: A Comprehensive Guide to Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prevention
Learn to identify, manage, and prevent lipid disorders while reducing cardiovascular risk through evidence-based diagnosis and treatment strategies.

About this course
Hyperlipidemias are a leading modifiable contributor to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), the foremost cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Despite widespread availability of effective therapies, significant gaps persist in screening, diagnosis, risk stratification, and long-term management—particularly among high-risk and underserved populations. This course equips healthcare providers with evidence-based strategies to navigate the evolving landscape of lipid management, including lifestyle interventions, pharmacologic therapies, and emerging treatments. Emphasis is placed on aligning clinical decision-making with current guidelines, addressing health disparities, and enhancing patient-centered care to improve cardiovascular outcomes across diverse practice settings.
