NCT03271931
Cardiovascular (CV) events are the leading cause of mortality in the United States. Statins have been demonstrated to be an effective tool for reducing CV events and mortality, but statins are often either not prescribed or under-prescribed for patients that meet evidence-based guidelines. In this study, we will evaluate a health system initiative using active and passive choice prompts in the electronic health record to prompt cardiologists to prescribe evidence-based statin therapy. In partnership with the health system, this will be conducted as a randomized, controlled trial to evaluate its effect.
NCT01832610
