Becker’s Healthcare -- Cardiology + Heart Surgery Podcast

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Ralph J. Riello III, PharmD, BCPS, Clinical Pharmacy Specialist, Cardiorenal & Metabolism, Yale School of Medicine, and Dr. Nihar Desai, MD, MPH, Associate Professor, Yale School of Medicine, Vice Chief, Cardiovascular Medicine, to discuss the key findings from the PROMPT-Lipid Trial.
