Abstract: Mortality from cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial infarction (MI), is predicted to increase dramatically in Asia-Pacific countries. However, there are few studies that estimate utilization of prophylactics, such as low-dose aspirin, in these countries. To determine this, an online survey was sent to physicians in 18 countries worldwide, and this article reports the findings from the Asia-Pacific region (N = 4372 respondents). The overall mean number of MI patients per respondent was 246 in the Asia-Pacific countries, and 55% of physicians (overall) rated their patient as having total compliance with aspirin. The use of aspirin monotherapy or combination therapy, aspirin dosage, and physician contact were all found to have a significant impact on compliance (all P < 0.00001). Educational material on the role of aspirin was ranked as the most effective measure to improve compliance. In conclusion, this survey indicates that educational initiatives on secondary prevention are urgently needed in Asia-Pacific countries.

Before We Are Born: Essentials of Embryology and Birth Defects With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access

Product Description
Abstract: Few surveys have assessed physicians’ attitudes toward preventive treatment in post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients, although these patients have a high risk of recurrence. A newly developed online survey, which aimed to determine physicians’ attitudes toward aspirin prophylaxis post-MI, was sent to physicians in 18 countries. This report describes findings from 7 European (n = 2842 respondents) and 2 Latin American (n = 149 respondents) countries. Although low-dose aspirin therapy was recommended by most physicians (> 90%), compliance was suboptimal; 29% of patients in Europe and 35% in Latin America were partially or totally noncompliant, and 18% of physicians in Europe and 20% in Latin America had lost contact with their patients. Low-dose aspirin monotherapy or combination therapy, dosage, and physician contact all had a significant effect on compliance (P < 0.00001). Shared decision making by the physician and patient was rated as the most effective measure to improve compliance, which clearly indicates the need for a change in management.
