Case #2
The Case
Our patient had...
- A positive treadmill test
- An angiography that was positive
- A CABG with aortic valve replacement.
- On a follow up visit, the total cholesterol is 212, LDL 147, HDL 47,
and triglycerides 125.
The Clinician's Thoughts
- I know a patient with coronary artery disease should be placed on
an HMG Co-A reductase inhibitor.
- The national cholesterol education panel (NCEP) recommends that the
LDL be less than 100.
- I wonder how effective it really is?
