Clinical trial for Hyperlipidemia
Official title Implementation of an Algorithm- and Multi-professional Team-supported Strategy to Improve Lipid Management of Patients With Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07334834
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The study wants to find out if using a computer guide and a team of health workers helps lower LDL (bad) cholesterol better than standard care.
- Who it's for
- This study is looking for people who have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, which is a condition where arteries are narrowed by plaque.
- What's involved
- Participants will be assigned to either a new management strategy using a computer algorithm and a multi-professional team, or to usual care.
- Time commitment
- The source text does not specify the duration or number of visits required.
