Summary
This study tests whether a targeted lipid optimization program—combining clinic visits and virtual sessions—helps high-risk heart disease patients in Abu Dhabi achieve better LDL cholesterol control. About 326 adults with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease will be randomly assigned to the program or standard care. The goal is to see if more patients reach their personalized cholesterol targets, potentially reducing future heart events.
