Diabetes Reducing Cardiovascular Risk Level 7 module

This module foregrounds risk reduction and preventative care for cardiovascular risk, with an emphasis on critical analysis of the research and evidence base as well as national and local guidelines. The module draws particular connections between cardiovascular complications in diabetes care and other relevant metabolic diseases, and the ways in which these complications can be reduced through a multifactorial approach. Students will explore how to reduce cardiovascular risk and deliver personalised care against a background of target-driven healthcare.
