3rd Annual Cardiovascular Disease Prevention Symposium

The most important way to avoid cardiovascular disease (heart aacks, heart failure, arrhythmias) is prevention. Most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented when other risk factors such as, being overweight, smoking, alcohol abuse, and not participating in physical activity are addressed. Early detection and medicine management are key for treating patients who present cardiovascular risks, such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidaemia or a
pre-existing disease.
