CMHC Pulse Blog

For 19 years, the Cardiometabolic Health Congress (CMHC) has worked towards a vision of a better future for clinicians, patients, and the entire health sector. This fall, we come together for the largest and most innovative cardiometabolic event in honor of the legacy of Dr. George L. Bakris. His unwavering dedication and contributions to CMHC as a renowned expert, educator, and mentor in the cardiorenal metabolic space have left an indelible mark on our community.

Our team looks forward to welcoming a uniquely multidisciplinary audience of attendees, visionaries, pioneers, and industry-leading companies in Boston from October 17-19 at the Boston Park Plaza. Here’s what you can expect at the biggest conference in cardiorenal metabolic health, the 19th Annual Cardiometabolic Congress (CMHC), DECODING THE CONSTELLATION of Cardiometabolic Health and Risk Factors

Practical, Future-Focused Education 

Cardiorenal and metabolic diseases, fueled by poor lifestyle choices and health conditions, lead to type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease. As these diseases and risk factors exist in a continuum, they cannot be treated in silos, which is, unfortunately, what tends to happen in clinical practice. The future of care demands a holistic approach. By treating patients as a whole and acknowledging the interconnectedness of risks and lifestyle, we can dramatically improve long-term health and population well-being. 

With this in mind, the 19th Annual Cardiometabolic Congress (CMHC) aims to bring together the industry’s brightest minds to revolutionize the practice of medicine today. A jam-packed, expertly curated agenda will highlight the latest and most impactful advancements in cardiorenal metabolic medicine and protocols for future-focused, whole-patient care. The conference will equip health professionals with clinical strategies that promote comprehensive health and tools to harness new therapies to improve our collective health outcomes. 

Innovations in Cardiorenal Metabolic Medicine 

The event will focus on the whole spectrum of cardiorenal metabolic disease, including obesity, diabetes, lipids, hypertension, and cardiorenal disease. The robust conference agenda begins with FDA updates and advancements in cardiorenal metabolic care. Each presenter will explore novel therapeutic approaches for comprehensive cardiorenal metabolic care, including GLP-1 RA in cardiovascular risk reduction, new agents for renal protection, and late-breaking trial data. 

The 2 ½ days of nonstop educational programming will deliver fresh, thought-provoking content focused on the interrelatedness of cardiorenal metabolic diseases and their risk factors. From presentations on resistant hypertension and cardiac biomarkers to lectures on obesity pharmacotherapy, precision medicine in diabetes, and nonstatin LDL lowering, our world-class speakers will provide attendees with over 20 engaging sessions and a wide variety of perspectives, clinical insights, and protocols to improve cardiorenal metabolic health and patient outcomes. 

This year’s renowned open-concept exhibit hall will feature industry-leading companies presenting their innovative products, technologies, and services designed to assist practitioners in delivering the best whole-patient care possible. 

A World-Class Panel of Experts 

The 19th Annual CMHC attendees will have the opportunity to hear from the most influential speakers in the field about the hottest topics in cardiorenal metabolic health and how to define a new vision for the future of health.
