Description
In Japan atherosclerosis society guideline, it is recommended for secondary prevention of acute coronary syndrome to manage lipid. In particular, hyper-LDLemia is known to develop and promote atherosclerosis, and lowering the LDL-C level leads to suppression of recurrence of atherosclerosis. We investigated the profile of lipid control in patients who succeeded in percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome(ACS)at our hospital, and examined by high risk patients(chronic kidney disease, diabetes, obesity). The achievement rate of LDL-C <100 at discharge was62% of all cases, and the achievement rate of LDL-C <70was only16%. In particular, only12% of obese patients achieved LDL-C <70. In recent years, it has been shown that additional administration of ezetimibe or PCSK9 inhibitor to statins further lowers LDL-C and significantly reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. We should recognize that some ACS patients have not reached their goals and actively treat them for secondary prevention.
