Primary Prevention of ASCVD and T2DM in Patients at Metabolic Risk
Key Points
Key Points
- Elevated waist circumference
- Decreased high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol
- Elevated serum triglycerides
- Elevated blood pressure
- Elevated blood glucose
Endocrine Society (ES) recommends that providers measure waist circumference as part of the initial evaluation. (Note: However, that this does not replace the measurement of weight.)
Behavioral change should be the first-line therapy for prevention and should include changes to diet, increased exercise, and weight loss.
Persons identified as having metabolic risk should undergo risk scoring to identify the 10-year risk for ASCVD.
