Secondary Prevention Post-MI: Pocketbook

Following a first acute myocardial ischemic event, top priority should be given to reducing the chance of a second. This seems fairly obvious. Nonetheless, cardiovascular risk factors are cumulative and it is necessary to reduce all risk factors substantially or altogether, whether it be smoking and obesity, cholesterol or hypertension, or effectively managing those like diabetes. Professor John McMurray provides clear guidance to reducing and managing coronary risk factors in this 104-page pocketbook.
