From: Effectiveness of a tailored intervention to improve cardiovascular risk management in primary care: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial

 

Recommendations

1.

Systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 140 mmHg in patients at high risk for CVD

2.

Systolic blood pressure < 140 mmHg in patients with established CVD

3.

Low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol < 2.5 mmol/l in patients at high risk for CVD

4.

Low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol < 2.5 mmol/l in patients with established CVD

5.

Promote lifestyle changes in patients with (high risk for) CVD

6.

Create a risk profile for patients with chronic kidney disease
