| Popis: | Introduction Lipid control is highly effective and improves clinical outcomes in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients, thus is one of the pillars of the cardiovascular secondary prevention. Purpose The aim of this preliminary analysis was to describe the lipid management in CAD patients in Brazil after one year of the clinical practice registry. Methods Patients with documented CAD were included by using electronic case report form based on the ACC PINNACLE Registry. The registry has been enrolling patients from general practitioners and specialists. Patients data were evaluated after 01 year of follow-up on regular clinical appointments and the differences on clinical practice were evaluated Results Currently, PINNACLE-Brazil enrolled individuals, with 2234 (29.4%) patients with CAD. Prescription of statin therapy was identified in 85.6% baseline and 78.3% follow-up. CAD patients with LDL-c 100 mg/dL with a documented plan to achieve LDL-c Conclusion The preliminary results of PINNACLE-Brazil show that, despite the relatively high prescription rate of statin therapy, LDL-c targeted level for CVD secondary prevention has not been achieved in the majority of patients after 01 year of follow-up. Nationwide knowledge translation initiatives are needed to improve the CVD burden in Brazil Acknowledgement/Funding ACC Foundation |
