Putting the Guidelines into Practice: Building a State-of-the-Art Lipid and Cardiometabolic Clinic-Welcome and Introductions

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The session introduces an ACC program, “Putting the Guidelines into Practice,” focused on applying newly released dyslipidemia guidelines and linking lipid management to cardiometabolic (cardio-kidney-metabolic) disease. Moderators and expert faculty are introduced, along with acknowledgement of grant supporters. Attendees are reminded to scan badges and complete a post-session survey to receive 1.25 CME credits. The audience then answers four interactive case-based polling questions on CKM syndrome staging, guideline-directed lipid therapy for complex patients (including statin intolerance and diabetes/CKD), next steps for high-risk patients with persistent elevated LDL, and health-system resources needed to deliver optimal lipid care. The next talk begins with CKM syndrome.
