2026 SDHF - Best Practices for Screening, Diagnosing and Treating ATTR-CM

'Best Practices for Screening, Diagnosing and Treating Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM)' to gain CME for viewing this program, visit https://www.freecme.com/products/best... * In this symposium, cardiac amyloidosis experts (Dr. Ahmad Masri, Dr. Ronald Witteles and Dr. Marcus Urey) will identify red flags that should raise suspicion for ATTR-CM and explain a practical algorithm to make an accurate and early diagnosis. Best use of guideline-recommended medical therapy (GDMT) for HF in ATTR-CM will be described, and clinical evidence with disease-modifying ATTR-CM therapies interpreted. A case-based discussion on optimal management of ATTR-CM will address issues related to recognition, diagnosis, and treatment. Educational Objectives: ■ Identify clinical clues that suggest the possibility for an ATTR-CM diagnosis. ■ Explain key steps in the diagnostic algorithm for ATTR-CM. ■ Describe the clinical evidence for ATTR-CM disease-modifying therapies, best adjustments of HF GDMT in patients with ATTR-CM, and novel therapies in development.
