The Victorian Heart Institute is dedicated to more than just treating cardiovascular disease – it is focused on preventing it before it starts. Our mission is to translate cutting-edge research into actionable strategies that protect at-risk individuals and the broader community from heart disease.
Effective cardiovascular disease prevention goes beyond conventional lifestyle advice. It demands an integrated approach, drawing on the latest advancements in nutrition, diabetes, obesity, ageing, physical activity, and overall wellbeing.
We are developing innovative solutions not only to prevent heart disease before it begins but also to manage and reduce risks in those already diagnosed. Patients with established heart disease face the highest risk of future complications, making prevention a critical priority.
As a multidisciplinary institute, the Victorian Heart Institute collaborates closely with hospitals and healthcare professionals to coordinate research-driven health solutions. By bridging expertise across medical fields, we aim to maximise the impact of preventative cardiology and improve long-term heart health outcomes.
