FOCUS on Cardiovascular disease and diabetes

The new 2023 ESC Guidelines for the management of cardiovascular disease in patients with diabetes focus on risk assessment and treatment of patients with diabetes. The guidelines cover comprehensive screening, risk stratification, treatment prioritisation, and specific treatment recommendations, with consideration given to an interdisciplinary approach. This month’s Focus provides carefully selected resources on best practice around this specific topic in cardiology, with a special emphasis on the new ESC Guidelines and how to overcome challenges in their implementation. These include ESC Congress presentations, webinars, journal articles, a textbook chapter and an ESC eLearning course.
