Improving Prevention of Stroke and Other Arterial Disease Complications by Closing Evidence-Practice Gaps

在颈动脉狭窄(大脑主动脉狭窄)的管理上存在着一个重大的证据-实践差距。在全球范围内，每年有数十亿美元浪费在不必要的颈动脉手术上。这个不合适的行业是由所有已确定的指导方针推动的。我将带领专家创建世界上第一个针对颈动脉狭窄的“证据真实”指南，并确定如何仅使用生活方式指导和药物治疗来最好地预防这些患者和其他患者的动脉疾病并发症。

There is a major evidence-practice gap in the management of carotid stenosis (main brain artery narrowing). Globally many billions of dollars are wasted annually on unnecessary carotid procedures. This inappropriate industry is driven by all identified guidelines. I will lead experts in creating the world’s first ‘evidence-true’ guideline for carotid stenosis and determine how to best prevent arterial disease complications in these and other patients using only lifestyle coaching and medication.
