Non-pharmacological secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases in patients with stable angina at specialized ambulatory institution

Abstract

The article describes the results of retrospective epidemiology (non-interventional study) two-stage study. This study was initiated to reveal and analyze changes occurred in the field of detection and modification of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with stable angina over the five-year period. The study identified some positive shifts in how doctors of outpatient cardiology clinic captured information about risk factors in medical records and how they implemented measures of non-pharmacological modification. However, in general degree of physicians’ attention to cardiovascular risk factors remains low.
