What you'll learn
At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

Webinar description
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death in the U.S. despite public health initiatives. Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for developing CVD, and strong clinical evidence supports the use of statin therapy to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. However, statin therapy is not always feasible for all patients due to contraindications and adverse events. Statin intolerance occurs in 5-20% of patients, particularly older adults. Thus, healthcare professionals need to learn about non-statin lipid-lowering agents to provide alternative therapeutic pathways for patients with statin intolerance.
This course will delve into the pathophysiology of atherosclerotic vascular diseases and identify biological targets for drug intervention. It will also cover various non-statin treatment options, their clinical applications, and potential adverse effects, providing healthcare professionals with comprehensive insights into managing hyperlipidemia and reducing cardiovascular risk.

I appreciate the convenience of the course being online and accessible through my phone and that it directly reports to CEBroker to support mandated education requirements.
I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
