为了评估医生关于高胆固醇血症的行为,回顾了两个月期间血清胆固醇水平平均为6.85 mmol/L或更高的患者的记录。在111例合格患者中,医生发现62例(56%)有高胆固醇血症,34例(31%)有处方治疗。排除那些先前已被诊断出疾病并在研究开始时接受治疗的患者,只有22%的高风险血清胆固醇水平患者接受了治疗。一个积极的医生教育计划的定义,评估和管理高胆固醇血症是必要的。
To assess physician behavior regarding hypercholesterolemia, records of patients whose serum cholesterol levels averaged 6.85 mmol/L or greater during a two-month period were reviewed. Of 111 eligible patients, physicians noted hypercholesterolemia in 62 (56%) and prescribed treatment in 34 (31%). Excluding those whose condition had been previously diagnosed and who were receiving treatment at the time of initiation of the study, only 22% of patients with high-risk serum cholesterol levels received treatment. An aggressive physician education program on the definition, evaluation, and management of hypercholesterolemia is needed.
