N2 - Pharmacological interventions in the
prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases are well defined
in the supporting evidence base, but practice implementation remains
variable. Clinical audit of drug therapy use against evidence-based
standards increases awareness of current best practice, identifies
patients with apparently unmet drug therapy needs (care issues), and
thereby informs multidisciplinary improvement strategies at population
and individual patient levels
