Manage episode 407504393 series 3561413
Dr. Salim Virani, professor of medicine at Aga Khan University and cardiologist at Texas Heart Institute, and Dr. Kristin Newby, professor of medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine, served together as co-chairs for the 2023 American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology Guideline for Chronic Coronary Disease. These guidelines aim to give the best possible recommendations for treating CCD and should be valuable for anyone dealing with these patients: cardiologists, primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, physicians' assistants, even pharmacists, and other allied health professionals. In this episode, Dr. Virani and Dr. Newby focus on the guideline's high-level approach to treatment, which emphasizes patient-centered care, a team-based approach, and a consideration of social determinants of health.
