Heart disease affects millions of people with nearly half of all adults in the United States having some type of cardiovascular disease1. Heart disease is chronic and progressive and yet highly undertreated; and as a result remains the #1 cause of death for Americans and inflicts a large toll on many racial and ethnic groups1-3. Although it’s more common in people over 65, heart disease can happen at any age.
Join us free of charge in-person on Saturday, October 15th in Baton Rouge or November 19th in Houston to learn more about how you can prevent, recognize, and treat heart disease -- and specifically heart valve disease -- in the elderly community, your family and yourself.
Next upcoming event: Edwards Lifesciences and Kappa Alpha Psi discuss heart disease and it's impact on the Black Community.
