Industry-Expert Theater 1, #1957
Sponsored by Pfizer

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (or ATTR-CM) is a serious, underrecognized and underdiagnosed cause of heart failure. Early recognition of clinical clues and accurate diagnosis are crucial to starting patients on the appropriate continuum of care. Join us to help raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of ATTR-CM, and the role of cardiac health professionals in suspecting, diagnosing and confirming ATTR-CM. The program will end with a review of the clinical data supporting an oral treatment option for patients with this progressive disease.

4008. Addressing the Risk of Early Recurrent MI: The Evolving Role of HDL in the 90-Day Post-AMI High-Risk Period
Industry-Expert Theater 1, #1957
Sponsored by CSL Behring

Could cholesterol efflux have the potential to reduce the high risk of recurrent CV events in the 90-day window following an AMI? Join our expert faculty of Dr. Eliot Brinton and Dr. Nihar Desai for discussion on the potential link between cholesterol efflux and the clinical importance of the high‑risk 90-day period following an AMI. The session will highlight risk of early recurrence of cardiovascular events despite advances in SOC, as well as explore current understanding of cholesterol efflux to potentially improve CV outcomes. We look forward to welcoming you to a lively, informative and interactive discussion.

Industry-Expert Theater 2, #2455
Sponsored by Sanofi

Now recognized as a chronic disease requiring an integrated, life-long management strategy, timely restoration and maintenance of sinus rhythm in atrial fibrillation (AF) is emerging as a key component in improving outcomes. Clinical trial data and real-world studies strengthen a growing body of evidence that suggests early rhythm control is associated with improved cardiovascular outcomes, better quality of life, and reduced hospitalization. Join our distinguished panel of experts as they discuss the latest data, updated guideline recommendations, and how new trials are addressing the question of early rhythm control and first-detected AF.
