The Learning Process:

Participants are expected to watch the video, reflect on its content, and complete the CME self-assessment and CME evaluation. Only upon completing this process will a participant's continuing education certificate be generated. The estimated time a learner will need to complete this self-study activity is 1 hour.

• Describe the effects of a nutritional intervention on the pathophysiologic mechanisms of cardiovascular disease.

• Identify the main functions of a registered dietitian in outpatient practice.

• List ways to physicians and dietitians can work together to optimize patient outcomes.
