Heart of the Matter: Improving Care and Outcomes in Patients with Cardiometabolic Disease

Thursday, November 7, 2024

Radiosurgery Symposium

 

The prevalence of patients with chronic metabolic and cardiovascular multi-comorbidities has steadily increased over the last few decades. Optimal management of these complex cardiometabolic patients requires interdisciplinary collaboration between specialists to deliver prevention-focused treatment. A remarkable shift in cardiometabolic disease prevention and treatment has recently occurred with the availability of glucose-lowering drugs with proven cardiorenal benefits in patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Please join us to hear Dr. Mikhail Kosiborod discuss advancements on the front of cardiometabolic guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and the applications for SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 receptor agonists as key components in this paradigm shift.
