What is the CMHC?
The Cardiometabolic Health Congress (CMHC) is a comprehensive medical education meeting focusing on Hypertension, Dyslipidemia, Type 2 Diabetes, Obesity,
Chronic Kidney Disease and Insulin Resistance.

 

      The 2008 Cardiometabolic Health Congress (CMHC) gratefully acknowledges our distinguished faculty and educational supporters for contributing
to our most successful program to date. Over 1000 U.S.-based practicing clinicians participated in our expert-level forum translating the latest clinical data in the practical strategies to prevent, delay, and manage cardiometabolic risk – with comprehensive education focusing on obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, and chronic kidney
disease. 2009 CMHC information will be continuously
updated on our website. Join our mailing list to be “in-the-know”.

      The biggest health problem facing the world today is from the combined impact of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
It is critical that physicians and health care providers understand the predictive relationship between metabolic risk factors and cardiovascular disease and employ aggressive intervention strategies
to prevent and/or delay disease progression.
