Cholesterol, naturally produced in the body and present also in some foods, is essential for several important bodily processes.
However, abnormal levels of cholesterol and triglycerides can be harmful.
It is estimated that up to one in three Australian people have abnormal or high cholesterol levels – hyperlipidaemia, which is a major risk factor for the development of chronic disease and in particular - cardiovascular disease [5].
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death around the world, currently affecting approximately 4.2 million Australians and costing the Australian healthcare system an estimated $12 billion every year [9].
This module is relevant to nurses caring for adult patients in a variety of healthcare settings, including primary, acute, and residential care.
As an introduction to cholesterol and triglycerides, we discuss the importance of cholesterol testing and pharmacological and non-pharmacological management of hyperlipidaemia, for reducing and preventing cardiovascular disease risk.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
