This session examines how strong partnerships with the Emergency Department can enhance PE care pathways. Drawing on real world experience, speakers from OhioHealth will discuss strategies for effective education, ongoing relationship building with ED leadership and clinicians, and the use of clear, algorithmic approaches to reduce variability in PE care. Attendees will gain practical insights into improving communication, standardization, and trust across ED and inpatient teams to support timely, coordinated PE management.

![Lp(a) in Womens Health: The Missing Piece in Residual Cardiovascular Risk
Join two leading experts for an in-depth discussion on lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and its emerging role in cardiovascular risk—particularly in women. Despite the 2026 ACC/AHA Dyslipidemia Guideline recommending that every adult have Lp(a) measured at least once in a lifetime, Lp(a) remains underutilized in routine clinical practice, leaving critical gaps in risk assessment and prevention.
This webinar will provide a clear, practical overview of Lp(a)—including what it is, why it is uniquely different from traditional lipid markers, and why it matters for identifying hidden cardiovascular risk. The webinar will highlight key scientific insights and review gender-specific data, examining how Lp(a) impacts cardiovascular outcomes in women across the lifespan.
Through real-world, case-based learning, participants will gain actionable strategies for incorporating Lp(a) into risk stratification and decision-making, especially within community health center settings where early detection and equitable care are essential.
Learning Objectives:
Describe the structure and biology of lipoprotein(a) and how it differs from other lipid biomarkers
Explain the clinical significance of elevated Lp(a) in cardiovascular risk assessment
Interpret emerging data on the role of Lp(a) in women’s cardiovascular health
Apply case-based approaches to integrate Lp(a) testing into everyday clinical practice
Utilize Lp(a) as a tool for improved risk stratification in community health settings
