Patients with clinically established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) are at very high risk of recurrent major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).Recently, The European Society of Cardiology published a clinical consensus statement on obesity and cardiovascular disease to highlight the need to address obesity as a critical factor in the secondary prevention of CVD. This clinical audit applies latest international and Australian guidelines to review the management of 5 patients with established ASCVD who are also overweight or obese. In addition to exploring traditional treatments including lifestyle modifications, blood pressure management, lipid lowering, and antithrombotic therapy, the audit incorporates latest recommendations for addressing residual CV risk using weight loss pharmacotherapy that is also indicated for MACE prevention.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in Australia. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a key causal factor in this pathological process and the primary target in the secondary prevention of ASCVD. Despite the widespread uptake of LDL-C lowering medications, many patients remain at increased risk of future CV events even after achieving guideline-recommended levels of LDL-C. This is commonly referred to as residual risk. Presented by Dr Robert Hungerford and Assoc. Prof Adam Nelson, this webinar will explore how to perform an advanced cardiovascular risk assessment to better stratify a patients’ cardiovascular risk, and to how to address residual risk with individualised treatments for important non-lipid risk factors, such as obesity.
