2023

 

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains an underlying cause of 85% of heart attack and stroke-related deaths. Despite its high prevalence, there is currently no united patient voice advocating for better cholesterol management to prevent ASCVD in Australia.
 

In 2023, APPISx Australia brought together representatives from patient organizations (including hearts4heart, Heart Support Australia, Heartbeat of Football Foundation), cholesterol patient advocate Luke Elias, healthcare system partners and healthcare professionals, at the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand (CSANZ) annual scientific meeting in Adelaide.
 

The patient-centered discussion focused on initiatives to improve outcomes for people and families with unhealthy cholesterol, looking beyond just awareness to also tackle behavior change and achieve real progress in managing cholesterol risk.
