Webinar Overview

Join ACC's Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease Member Section for a deep dive into the 2026 AHA/ACC/ADA/ASN Guideline for the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Management of Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome Guideline and how it relates to your clinical practice.

The newly released cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome (CKM) Guideline offers important, comprehensive recommendations and practice-relevant insights. To help reduce long-term cardiovascular and kidney complications, the Guideline introduces a structured CKM staging framework, highlights the use of PREVENT risk equations for more accurate assessment and emphasizes the importance of coordinated, interdisciplinary care. This webinar, hosted by the ACC's Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease Member Section, will review key highlights from the Guideline and explore its implications for clinical practice. Guideline authors and clinical experts will deliver a concise overview followed by an interactive discussion and audience Q&A.
