Cardiological Society Of India unveils first Indian guidelines for Dyslipidemia management

In a landmark development, the Cardiological Society of India (CSI) has unveiled the first-ever Indian guidelines for dyslipidemia management. This significant initiative marks a milestone in addressing the unique challenges and variations in dyslipidemia prevalence across the nation by incorporating extensive Indian data.

Dyslipidemia, characterised by high total cholesterol, elevated LDL-cholesterol (bad cholesterol), high triglycerides, and low HDL-cholesterol (good cholesterol), is a critical risk factor for cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks, strokes, and peripheral artery disease. The prevalence of dyslipidemia in India is alarmingly high, with significant interstate variations and particularly elevated rates in urban areas.
