Evidence for Advancing Heart Health
Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States. To prevent heart attacks, health care professionals can work with their patients to adopt the ABCS of cardiovascular disease prevention:
- Aspirin use by high-risk individuals
- Blood pressure control
- Cholesterol management
- Smoking cessation
Clinical evidence about how best to prevent cardiovascular disease through delivery of the ABCS is constantly evolving. EvidenceNOW developed resources for primary care practices using the latest patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) findings available at the time to improve heart health.
