Overview

Persistent risk factor gaps post-CABG in women may require enhanced secondary prevention; leaves open optimal strategies and outcome impact.

Structured PICO

P
Population
130 women who underwent first-time, isolated CABG between February 1992 and October 1993, mean age 65 years, 24% African American.
O
Outcome
Coronary risk factor status (lipid profiles, blood pressure, weight, smoking status, and lifestyle behaviors) at 1 yearsurrogate

Women continue to have multiple poorly controlled coronary risk factors 1 year after CABG, highlighting a critical gap in secondary prevention.
