Preventive Cardiology Program
The Preventive Cardiology Program offers comprehensive services for both hypercholesterolemia and hypertension. The program is administered and staffed by experts in pediatric cardiology, pediatric gastroenterology, and nutrition, all of whom oversee the care of patients with abnormalities in lipid metabolism. This includes patients with both hypercholesteremia and hyperlipidemia. They also evaluate patients with unexplained systemic hypertension.
The program primarily operates on an outpatient basis to advise families on the evaluation and management of children with these problems. However, children with severe lipid disorders, particularly with elevated cholesterol, may be admitted to the hospital for treatment to control their cholesterol levels.
