Implication

Modest BP gains support ongoing CAD quality monitoring; leaves open whether targeted interventions can improve other risk factors.

Structured PICO

Has the implementation of CAD secondary prevention guidelines and risk factor control improved since 2006 in patients hospitalized for CAD?

P
Population
Patients after hospitalisation due to coronary artery disease
O
Outcome
Implementation of CAD secondary prevention guidelines and control of main risk factors (e.g., blood pressure)surrogate

Despite modest improvements in blood pressure control, there remains considerable potential for further reduction of cardiovascular risk in CAD patients through better implementation of secondary prevention guidelines.
