Program Overview

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) remains under-recognized in clinical practice, particularly among women, where differences in phenotype and reliance on traditional diagnostic thresholds contribute to delayed or missed diagnosis. Recent data presented at ACC.26 provide important insights into disease recognition, diagnostic considerations, and emerging therapeutic evidence with direct implications for clinical care.

This activity is designed to translate key findings from ACC.26 into practical, clinically relevant insights that can be applied in real-world settings. Learners will review emerging evidence, examine limitations in current data, and understand how these factors influence recognition, diagnosis, and management of ATTR-CM in women.

The activity emphasizes application of evidence to practice, including identification of sex-specific clinical features, consideration of adjusted diagnostic thresholds, and integration of evolving therapeutic data into clinical decision-making. Interactive elements are incorporated throughout to support engagement and reinforce understanding of key concepts.

Target Audience

This educational initiative is designed for cardiologists, including general cardiologists, heart failure specialists, and electrophysiologists, as well as internal medicine physicians, primary care clinicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the recognition and management of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, the participant should be able to:
  • Interpret recent ATTR-CM clinical trial data and emerging evidence. 
  • Identify ATTR-CM features more commonly seen in women.
  • Apply adjusted diagnostic thresholds in women presenting with HFpEF and ventricular wall thickening.
  • Select appropriate ATTR-CM therapy using emerging evidence, individualized to patient characteristics and disease stage.
