Join NYU Langone Health cardiologist Jeffrey S. Berger, MD, as he discusses the use of aspirin and other blood thinner therapies, known as antithrombotics, to prevent a first heart attack or stroke. Dr. Berger explains the controversy of daily aspirin use by healthy, elderly individuals and shares new information about aspirin use in patients with diabetes. Topics include new antithrombotic therapies and how they work; evaluating the benefits and risks of antithrombotic therapy; the latest research developments on the blood-clotting process; and how scientists are working to identify which populations have a greater risk for cardiovascular events.
This lecture is presented by the Center for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease. This patient education initiative focuses on topics related to helping you take control of your heart health and work toward a healthier future.
