All healthcare professionals need to understand what causes this disease and how to prevent it. This new edition of this highly successful book brings together the latest information and research on CHD; in particular, the health professional's role in prevention of the disease. It gives practical advice on correcting these factors through lifestyle and medical management. Updates for the second edition include:coverage of the new large lipid-lowering drug trialstherapeutic advances in the use of thrombolytic, antiplatelet and anti-hypertensive drugsadvances in treatments including diabetic control, anti-smoking therapy, prescription of exercise and the use of dietary advice.This book is aimed at the broad range of professionals who come into contact with CHD patients and with those at risk of CHD, including nurses, physiotherapists, dieticiansdietitians, occupational therapists, clinical psychologists, general practitioners, doctors who are involved in prevention and rehabilitation and all staff working in coronary care units, lipid and hypertension clinics and general cardiology clinics.evidence-based content ensures a firm scientific basis for practicethe practical nature of the content can be immediately applied in the working environment e.g. smoking cessation strategies, dietary counseling and risk assessmentthe multidisciplinary group of contributors ensures that the content reflects the multidisciplinary nature of CHD prevention workcase studies and practice exercises enable the application of theory to practicesummaries of key points facilitate understanding and retentionthe implications from clinical governance legislation, the National Service Frameworks and Joint British Recommendations on prevention of CHD in clinical practicerecent research outcomes e.g. the HOT trialdiabetes and its links with CHDmaterial relating to ethnic minoritiesmore 'global' statistics where possible to make the text more appealing to international marketsthe inequalities arising from socio-economic exclusion
