To examine improvement in the use of optimal medical therapy (OMT) for secondary prevention in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and diabetes.
Materials and Methods
Patients with ASCVD (coronary, cerebrovascular, peripheral) and low‐density lipoprotein‐cholesterol of 70 mg/dl or higher were enrolled from December 2016 to July 2018 from 107 US sites/physicians (47% cardiology, 41% primary care, 12% other) and prospectively followed for 2 years (current analysis restricted to subgroup with diabetes). OMT was defined as high‐intensity lipid‐lowering (high‐intensity statin, any statin + ezetimibe, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor), antithrombotic (antiplatelet or anticoagulant), angiotensin‐converting enzyme‐inhibitor/angiotensin II receptor blocker/angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ACE‐I/ARB/ARNI) (excluding glomerular filtration rate [GFR] |
