Study Day Summary

This face-to-face study day provides a practical, NICE-aligned update on integrated CVRM management. Cardiovascular–renal–metabolic (CVRM) disease is a leading cause of morbidity and premature mortality in the UK. Heart failure, CKD, type 2 diabetes, and ASCVD are closely interconnected, yet often managed in isolation. Through expert-led, case-based discussions, delegates will gain confidence in risk stratification, treatment optimisation, and safe prescribing across the CVRM spectrum.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the study day, participants will be able to:

Apply an integrated approach to CVRM risk assessment
Optimise RAAS inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, and lipid therapy
Manage complex multimorbidity, including HFrEF and CKD
Deliver prevention-focused, holistic reviews that improve long-term outcomes

Key Benefits

Practical application of NICE guidance
Clear decision-making frameworks
Improved confidence in CVRM prescribing
CPD certificate for revalidation

Additional Information

Face-to-face, CPD-accredited event. Suitable for GPs, prescribing pharmacists, nurses, and primary care MDT members.
