Putting Prevention First: Short Course

Although evidence based care is being delivered for patients once they have developed cardiovascular disease, little structure is in place for identifying and undertaking CVD risk assessment and supporting individuals found to be at high risk. We now have the potential to delay or prevent cardiovascular disease developing through the use of evidence based guidelines.
