Tóm tắt

Objective: The JADE (Jornada de Análisis de Dislipemias en España) study aimed to analyse the impact of dyslipidaemia and other cardiovascular risk factors in primary care and to establish the attitude of physicians in treating dyslipidaemic patients. Participants and Methods: The JADE study was an observational study conducted in primary care centres throughout the Spanish territory over 1 day of activity. Physicians recorded the data of each patient who visited on the day selected and who provided laboratory tests on a previous visit (i.e. for reasons not related to the study) including the measurement of some lipid parameters. 3841 physicians participated, and collected information from 10 641 patients, of whom 7832 met predefined criteria for dyslipidaemia (73.6%). Results and Conclusion: In the group of patients with dyslipidaemia, 55.6% of patients received lipid-lowering treatment. When the degree of control achieved by patients on lipid-lowering drug treatment was analysed, it was found that only 14.7% had ideal low density lipoprotein levels, while in the group of patients considered to be nondyslipidaemic, 38.1% met criteria for lipid-lowering drug intervention but were not receiving treatment. Therefore, it would be advisable to perform programmes promoting the better diagnosis and treatment of dyslipidaemias.
