A system and Method for the Evaluation and monitoring of cardiovascular risk with Assessment of Atherosclerosis

摘要

This aims at a system and Procedure for the assessment and monitoring of cardiovascular risk assessment system consists of elements whose Atherosclerosis Imaging (Ultrasound), a modifier and a Data Element in Software and a procedure: And the operation of The Imaging element.The identification of the elements captured in a template, and the final result through the Application Software and whose objective is the dissemination of the use of TPA for the Evaluation of Atherosclerosis, Enabling the Measurement of the total plaque area (PCA), and the use of TPA for the CLAS Training of cardiovascular risk.It is characterized by the use of New Techniques for Initial Assessment and follow-up of clinical and subclinical atherosclerosis and is based on the combination of Ultrasound and a software that includes activities, products and services to support the use of Val Prayer of the burden of Atherosclerosis in clinical practiceThrough the intervention of the Human Operator (sonographer), using the Measurement of the total area (PCA), carotid plaque by Ultrasound technique described by Dr. David Spence and cardiovascular risk Prediction algorithms as defined by Dr. Michel romanens. That is, merge the techniques developed by both medical professionals.The programme's activities range from Training and dissemination of this strategy, the development of specific tools, Audit quality and second opinion and Research Activities for the development of New Techniques for the Evaluation of the ateroscleros Is the Prevention and regression of atherosclerotic plaque.
