At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
- Discuss the results and importance of REDUCE-IT and other recent cardiovascular outcomes trials that reduce ASCVD events beyond statin therapy.
- Describe the potential biologic basis for the reductions in ASCVD events observed in REDUCE-IT.
- Apply evidence-based trial data and guidelines to lifestyle and therapeutic approaches for managing patients with or at high risk of ASCVD events.
- Discuss strategies to improve the knowledge, skills or performance of the healthcare team.
