Digital health can’t be equitable if it’s not inclusive from the start.

At ASPC 2025, we interviewed Dr. Fatima Rodriguez, MD, MPH, on how to reduce the tech equity gap in medicine. Her advice:

- Engage communities early in development
- Incorporate local context into recommendations
- Build inclusion into every stage of innovation

Can you guess the type of atherectomy shown in this animation?

Here are your options:
Rotational Atherectomy
Orbital Atherectomy
Laser Atherectomy
Directional Atherectomy

Here’s your hint:
It’s a technique used to remove plaque buildup from arteries, especially when PAD causes severe narrowing and reduced blood flow.

American Society for Preventive Cardiology (ASPC) is no longer the small niche society it once was. Now it is forefront in shaping the space of cardiometabolic disease prevention.

At ASPC 2025, Dr. Khurram Nasir shared how ASPC has evolved into a central hub for cardiometabolic prevention by:

- Integrating community and patient perspectives

- Expanding into full-spectrum cardiometabolic prevention

- Convening diverse healthcare leaders under one roof

At American Society for Preventive Cardiology (ASPC) 2025, we spoke with Dr. Michael Shapiro, who addressed a lingering misconception:

❌ Preventive cardiology isn’t a real subspecialty.

It absolutely is.

With validated tools, expanding therapeutics, and growing evidence, early risk identification and intervention are now core to cardiovascular medicine.

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is more than leg pain. It’s a warning sign for heart disease and stroke! There are over 10 million people above age 40 who have PAD. Two-thirds of them are at high risk for heart attack and/or stroke.

Recognizing PAD early is critical for preventing such major cardiovascular events. For clinicians, identifying subtle signs, like cold, shiny legs or ischemic ulcers, can be the first step in life-saving interventions.

PAD is often underdiagnosed and undertreated, yet it’s one of the strongest predictors of poor cardiovascular outcomes.

Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) includes both arterial and venous pathologies, but recognizing the difference between PAD and CVI can be tricky, and it’s often underdiagnosed.

Clinicians, we want to hear from you:
How often do you come across PAD or CVI in your practice?
What’s your diagnostic test of choice? (ABI, Duplex Ultrasound, CTA/MRA, MRI?)
Who do you usually refer to next: vascular surgeon, radiologist, cardiologist, podiatrist, or do you manage it yourself?

🫀 Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death worldwide, but it’s also highly preventable. Studies indicate that as much as 80% of CVD is preventable through lifestyle changes and managing risk factors.

As we prepare for ASPC 2025 in Boston, we’re highlighting the importance of prevention, from healthy habits to clinical interventions that can significantly impact heart health.
We’re bringing your questions directly to Preventive Cardiologists at the conference.

🫀 Let's review the five critical ECG rhythms
👉 Ventricular Fibrillation (V-Fib): Chaotic ventricular activity with no output, needs immediate defibrillation.
👉 Ventricular Tachycardia (VT): Fast, wide-complex rhythm from ventricles, may be pulseless.
👉Atrial Fibrillation (AFib): Irregularly irregular with no P waves, raises stroke risk.
👉Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT): Sudden, fast, regular rhythm with narrow QRS. Vagal maneuvers may help.
👉Bradycardia: Heart rate

An 'enlarged heart' isn’t a disease itself, but a finding that needs further investigation!

Cardiomegaly often develops as the heart tries to work harder to compensate for underlying conditions like high blood pressure or valve disease. If left unchecked, this can lead to arrhythmias, heart failure, or thromboembolic events.

As clinicians, it’s vital to recognize subtle symptoms early, like swelling in the legs, shortness of breath, or fatigue, and order appropriate imaging like an echocardiogram or chest X-ray, to diagnose the underlying condition quickly.
