2025 Consensus on the Clinical Pathway of Blood Cholesterol Management in Taiwan.
Increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is one of the most important risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, the attainment rate of recommended LDL-C targets is not optimal with significant scope for improvement in Taiwan. This clinical pathway for cholesterol management was developed based on the Taiwan lipid guidelines and expert opinions from major medical societies in Taiwan. It was designed with the aim of improving the outcomes of people at risk of or with ASCVD who would benefit from lipid control to reduce the risk of new or recurrent cardiac events. The pathway proposes adequate LDL-C targets for people at different risk levels of ASCVD and standardizes lipid management and follow-up in patients receiving lipid lowering therapy. The ultimate purpose is to facilitate the attainment of individual LDL-C targets and ensure that patients are monitored adequately and optimized on the appropriate lipid lowering therapy to reduce the risk of ASCVD.
