Control of coronary risk factors in secondary prevention : PRESENAP study

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the overall achievement of goals in the control of risk factors in secondary prevention in patients who have suffered a coronary event and are followed up in primary care centers.

PATIENTS AND METHOD: Descriptive, transversal, multicenter study with sampling by consecutive inclusion of the first 5 patients attending the doctor's office who had suffered a coronary event 6 months to 10 years previously. The targets for control were: blood pressure < 140/90 mmHg in the general population and < 130/85 mmHg in diabetics; LDL-cholesterol < 100 mg/dl and no smoking habit.

RESULTS: 8,817 patients (73.7% males) were included, with a mean (SD) age of 65.4 (10.3) years; 76.6% were hypertensive, 73.4% dyslipidemic and 32.7% diabetics; 60.2% achieved target blood pressure; 26.3% achieved LDL-cholesterol <100 mg/dl and 11.4% continued smoking; 16.4% fulfilled all recommendations. Factors independently related with good control were a lower age, male sex, patients who had been admitted with acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation (OR = 1.39; CI 95%, 1.01-1.93; p = 0.04) or for revascularization (OR = 1.37; CI 95%; 1.12-1.67; p = 0.002), patients with peripheral arterial disease (OR = 1.43; CI 95%, 1.11-1.84; p = 0.005) and when the physicians proposed suitable objectives (OR = 1.90; CI 95%, 1.48-2.44; p < 0.0001). Control was poorer in hypertensive or dyslipidemic patients.

CONCLUSIONS: Overall control of risk factors in secondary prevention of coronary disease is achieved in one in six patients attending primary care.
