New Guidelines From Canadian Cardiovascular Society

The Canadian Cardiovascular Society has released a clinical practice update outlining how genetic testing can be better integrated into care for inherited heart conditions—including aortic disease, and more.

Genetic testing plays a critical role in early diagnosis, risk assessment, and preventing sudden cardiac death—not just for patients, but for families. As demand grows, this update offers practical models of care, addresses real-world challenges, and highlights the need for education, collaboration, policy, and equitable access across Canada.

We sincerely thank the authors for recognizing GADA as a trusted source of information in this important work and for their leadership in advancing cardiogenetic care
