High cholesterol is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and stroke, the No. 1 and No. 5 killers in the U.S.
This initiative aims to improve awareness, detection, and management of high cholesterol by educating and empowering consumers, healthcare professionals, and patients with evidence-based information and tools, while also improving quality of care for patients through AHA’s quality improvement programs.
