Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The change in Smart Risk Score from baseline until 6 months will be the primary<br /><br>outcome of this study. The SMART Risk Score estimates the 10-year risk for<br /><br>recurrent vascular events in patients with manifest cardiovascular disease<br /><br>based on the following modifiable parameters: systolic blood pressure,<br /><br>creatinine, hsCRP and cholesterol.</p><br>
