Patients who should be treated with secondary prevention are those with established atherosclerosis including peripheral artery
disease; carotid artery disease; atherosclerotic aortic disease; diabetes and those with a Framingham Risk Score of > 20%.
There are 10 aspects of secondary prevention: Smoking cessation; blood pressure control; lipid-lowering; increasing physical activity; weight loss; diabetes control;  antiplatelet agents/anticoagulants; RAS blockers; beta-blockers and influenza vaccine.

==Blood Pressure Control==
{{WH}}
*If blood pressure is > 120/80 mm Hg:
{{WS}}
Initiate or maintain lifestyle modification (weight control, EtOH moderation, sodium reduction, increased physical activity, increased fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy)
*If blood pressure > 140/90 mm Hg: As tolerated, add blood pressure medication (betablockers and/or ACE inhibitors initially).
 
===AHA/ACC Secondary Prevention for Patients With Coronary and Other Vascular Disease : 2006 Update===
 
For all patients:
 
==Lipid Management==
*Assess fasting lipid profile in all patients with CHD, and within 24 hours of an acute cardiovascular or coronary event.
*For hospitalized patients, initiate lipid-lowering medication before discharge.
*LDL-C should be less than 100 mg/dL AND at least a 30% reduction in LDL.
*Further reduction to LDL-C to < 70 mg/dL in very high risk patients is reasonable
*If TG >200 mg/dL, non-HDL-C should be < 130 mg/dL
*Start dietary therapy (<7% of total calories as saturated fat and <200 mg/d cholesterol)
*Add plant stanol/sterols (2 gm/day) and viscous fiber (>10 mg/day)
*Promote daily physical activity and weight management.
*Omega-3 fatty acids in fish or 1 g/day
*Omega-3 fatty acids in capsule form.
 
==Physical Activity Recommendations==
*Encourage 30 to 60 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic activity such as brisk walking, on most, preferably all, days of the week.
*Advise medically supervised programs for high-risk patients (e.g. recent acute coronary syndrome or revascularization, heart failure)
 
==Weight Management==
*Goal: BMI 18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2
*Waist Circumference:
:*Men: < 40 inches
:*Women: < 35 inches
 
*If waist circumference >35 inches in women and >40 inches in men initiate lifestyle changes and consider treatment strategies for metabolic syndrome as indicated.
*The initial goal of weight loss therapy should be to reduce body weight by approximately 5-10 percent from baseline.
 
==ACE Inhibition==
*Use in all patients with LVEF < 40%, and those with diabetes or chronic kidney disease indefinitely, unless contraindicated
*Consider for all other patients
 
==Angiotensin Receptor Blockade==
*Use in patients who are intolerant of ACE inhibitors with heart failure or post MI with LVEF less than or equal to 40%.
*Consider in other patients who are ACE inhibitor intolerant.
 
==Diabetes Mellitus==
*Lifestyle and pharmacotherapy to achieve HbA1C <7% may be considered.
*Less stringent goal for may be considered (severe hypoglycemia, limited life expectancy, extensive comorbidities)
 
 
===Anti-platelet therapy===
A [[meta-analysis]] of [[randomized controlled trials]] by the international [[Cochrane Collaboration]] found "that the use of clopidogrel plus aspirin is associated with a reduction in the risk of cardiovascular events compared with aspirin alone in patients with acute non-ST coronary syndrome. In patients at high risk of cardiovascular disease but not presenting acutely, there is only weak evidence of benefit and hazards of treatment almost match any benefit obtained.".<ref name="pmid17636787">{{cite journal |author=Keller T, Squizzato A, Middeldorp S |title=Clopidogrel plus aspirin versus aspirin alone for preventing cardiovascular disease |journal=Cochrane database of systematic reviews (Online) |volume= |issue=3 |pages=CD005158 |year=2007 |pmid=17636787 |doi=10.1002/14651858.CD005158.pub2}}</ref>

Overview

Patients who should be treated with secondary prevention are those with established atherosclerosis including peripheral artery disease; carotid artery disease; atherosclerotic aortic disease; diabetes and those with a Framingham Risk Score of > 20%. There are 12 aspects of secondary prevention: Smoking cessation; blood pressure control; lipid-lowering; increasing physical activity; weight loss; diabetes control; antiplatelet agents/anticoagulants; RAS blockers; beta-blockers; depression management; cardiac rehabilitation and influenza vaccine. Please note that secondary prevention guidelines, especially, those involving medication, may differ between UA/NSTEMI; STEMI; and Chronic Stable Angina. Please refer to appropriate page for more specific guidelines.
