DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Virtual attendance options are available. \n\nPre
 sented by the Houston Methodist DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center \n\n\n\nPre
 vention of cardiovascular disease (heart attacks\, heart failure\, arrhythm
 ias) is possible. Most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented when other 
 risk factors\, such as overweight or obesity\, smoking\, physical inactivit
 y\, high blood pressure\, high cholesterol\, and diabetes\, are addressed. 
 Early detection\, lifestyle modification\, and medicine management are key 
 for addressing cardiovascular risk.\n\nThe number of patients with obesity\
 , diabetes\, and other risk factors continues to rise. Therefore\, more emp
 hasis needs to be on prevention\, rather than reacting and managing cardiov
 ascular diseases. This educational event will provide updates on the most c
 urrent recommendations for cardiovascular disease prevention\, ranging from
  lifestyle interventions\, testing and clinical decision-making for physici
 ans\, physician assistants\, nurse practitioners\, residents\, and fellows.
  Examples include diet\, exercise and obesity-related guidelines (primary p
 revention)\, blood pressure management\, cholesterol management\, newer the
 rapies for diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
