Über diesen Titel

In this session, we explore the latest NICE 2023 guidance on lipids, statins, and cardiovascular risk, along with updates from the AAC. Key points include criteria for offering statins without risk calculation, the use of QRISK3 for risk assessment, and specific considerations for groups like those with chronic kidney disease, very elderly patients, and individuals with type 1 diabetes. We'll also cover practical aspects of communication, lifestyle advice, monitoring, and alternative treatments for statin intolerance. This video aims to make these guidelines practical and easy to follow for daily clinical use.
