The Primary Care Cardiovascular Society (PCCS) invites you to attend the Search, Identify, Treat: Managing Residual Cardiovascular Risk in Primary Care webinar on Tuesday, 3rd November 2026, from 19:00-21:00.
Elevated triglycerides are a well-established risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet they often go under-recognised in routine practice. Identifying at-risk patients early is essential for timely diagnosis, effective management and to support positive long-term patient outcomes.
Join Prof Raj Thakkar, Meredith Donaldson and Beverley Bostock as they demonstrate how to implement targeted system searches within your clinical software to systematically identify patients with raised triglycerides - including those who may otherwise go unidentified and untreated. You will come away with practical learns and search strategies you can apply in your own practice immediately.
We look forward to seeing you there.
