The Cardio-Metabolic Clinic
Sponsor: Odense University Hospital
Summary
This study aims to investigate whether a Cardio-Metabolic Clinic can protect the cardiovascular health of patients with both diabetes and cardiovascular disease. * At the Cardio-Metabolic Clinic, patients will receive a specialized and comprehensive care. This includes applying a systematic approach, considering their whole health based on the latest knowledge in the field, and administering aggressive treatment with heart protective medications. * The ProtecT-2-D trial will compare the effects of care at the Cardio-Metabolic Clinic to usual care to see if there are any differences in cardiovascular illness and death.
