Cardio-rheumatology is a key emerging sub-specialty in global healthcare, positioned at a complex intersection of two core disciplines. Full understanding of the field requires expertise in both cardiology and rheumatology to unpick this intricate interrelationship. The UK CARDIO-IMID Hub, hosted on MEDShr, brings together structured learning to upskill clinicians, academics, and healthcare professionals from both disciplines, building the shared knowledge needed to improve the management and outcomes of patients with Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases (IMIDs) and associated cardiovascular risks and complications to meet a core unmet need across global populations.

Course 1: Introduction to Cardio-Rheumatology establishes the clinical and scientific groundwork — covering core cardiovascular conditions seen in IMID patients, the key rheumatic diseases driving them, and the immune mechanisms underpinning both ischaemic and non-ischaemic cardiovascular disease.
IN-DEVELOPMENT
Subsequent courses - coming soon - will expand on these core principles, examining how cardiovascular disease manifests across specific IMIDs, highlighting the value and best practices for advanced imaging in this patient population, and outlining guideline‑directed and targeted therapeutic strategies for managing both the underlying rheumatic disease and associated cardiovascular involvement.
Whether you're a cardiologist expanding your rheumatology knowledge or a rheumatologist looking to sharpen your cardiovascular awareness, the UK CARDIO-IMID Hub is designed to provide a comprehensive cardio‑rheumatology toolkit to support your daily practice - continuously growing alongside your evolving needs and the latest advancements in the field
