- W2469082014 abstract "The current NCEP-II guidelines recommend that secondary prevention patients should lower their LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) below 100 mg/dL. We implemented a Lipid Management Program to aggressively achieve this goal. We report on the impact of this intervention on compliance rates for African Americans (AA) vs Whites (W) treated with an HMG-Co-A reductase inhibitor for secondary prevention at the veterans affairs hospital.We reviewed all patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or diabetes mellitus (DM) at our institution on monotherapy with an HMG-Co-A reductase inhibitor in 1999. We examined the initial and post intervention lipid profiles for both races.The groups differed in that compared to the Whites, the AA were younger (65.8 vs 71.4, P = .0001); had a higher prevalence of type 2 DM (70.1% vs 40.8%, P = .001), had more obesity (57.5% vs 41.0%, P = .001), and were more likely to smoke (42.5% vs 9.6%, P = .001). AA had more clinic visits (5.04/pt vs 3.95/pt, P = .0001) and fasting lipid profiles (4.46/pt vs 3.0/pt, P = .0001). There was no difference in the prevalence of hypertension or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor dose. AA were less likely to achieve the goal for LDL-C recommended by NCEP-II (40.94% vs 56.9%, P = .001).Despite equivalent doses of statin, AA were less likely to meet NCEP-II recommendations. This occurred even though AA had more clinic visits and lipid profiles. Our intervention did not narrow this racial gap in compliance rates. Possible explanations include: 1) variations in patient compliance; 2) impact of differences in lifestyle (DM, obesity, and smoking); and 3) the need for more intensive drug therapy in patients starting with a higher baseline LDL-C." @default.
