BEHAVIORAL

Early Intervention

Participant and clinician lipid score card to increase the likelihood of effecting guideline-directed change in lipid lowering therapy through two key actors - both the patient and their clinician(s). The Score Card documents four key fields to be completed by the participant, study team and participant's regular clinician including 1) 'current' LDL-C level, 2) participant's level of adherence to lipid-lowering therapy using modified Voil's criteria, 3) lipid-lowering management decisions made at the clinician's appointment and 4) currently prescribed lipid-lowering therapies.
