Preventive
Cardiology Program
The
Preventive Cardiology Program evaluates and treats primary
and secondary lipid and lipoprotein disorders using
dietary, pharmacologic and surgical therapies in conjunction
with lifestyle changes. The emphasis is on the prevention
and retardation of atherosclerosis in symptomatic and
asymptomatic patients with hyperbetalipoproteinemia
and hypoalphaliproteinemia of lipid metabolism such
as xanthomatosis.
The
program plays a major role in Loyola University Health
System's (Loyola) commitment to preventive cardiology
and sees a constant flow of referrals from cardiologists
and other physicians dealing with atherosclerosis. Near
relatives of subjects with overt disease are screened,
assessed and managed if they have lipoprotein disorder.
