Abstract

not only to decrease cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality, but also because it has an impact on quality of life. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate secondary prevention drug therapy in patients with cardiovascular events who attend the Family Health Units of Embu-Guaçu. Patients and Methods: An observational, cross-sectional study was conducted with 68 patients who had experienced at least one cardiovascular event and who answered a questionnaire including socio-demographic data, cardiovascular event identification, prescribed medications, prescribers, and place of follow-up. Results: Among the cardiovascular events, stroke was the most prevalent (p <0.0001) followed by Acute Myocardial Infarction - AMI. Only 21% of prescriptions were adequate; the majority of the participants were accompanied by the cardiologist. Of the patients followed by primary healthcare, only 26% received the appropriate prescription. Conclusions: Secondary prevention drug therapy of patients studied at these Basic Health Units in the municipality of Embu-Guaçu is far from being considered ideal, as only 26% of the prescriptions were adequate according to the guidelines on secondary prevention drug therapy for CVD, and below some studies that report up to 90%.
