该研究的目的是描述医生提醒对测量低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（LDL-C）水平和治疗的影响，以达到冠心病（CHD）患者LDL-C <或= 100 mg/dL的目标。在启动提醒后，1997年1月至1998年7月期间，没有记录LDL-C的CHD患者数量从30%降至18%，达到LDL-C目标的CHD患者百分比从10%提高到27%。因此，提醒可以成为改善CHD患者胆固醇管理的有效工具。相比之下，除了提醒之外，一些医生可以使用的降胆固醇诊所很少使用。
The purpose of the study was to describe the effect of physician reminders on the measurement of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and treatment to achieve an LDL-C goal of< or= 100 mg/dL in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients. After reminders were initiated, the number of CHD patients without a documented LDL-C was reduced from 30% to 18%, between January 1997 and July 1998, and the percentage of CHD patients achieving the LDL-C goal improved from 10% to 27%. Thus, reminders can be an effective tool in improving cholesterol management of CHD patients. In contrast, a cholesterol-lowering clinic made available to some physicians, in addition to the reminders, was rarely used.
