6 Risk Factors and Treatments of Known Efficacy/Significant Impact I Risk Factors 1. tobacco free 2. ideal blood pressure 3. good nutrition 4. adequate physical activity 5. omega-3 fatty acid consumption (fish) Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest 6. Automated external defibrillators Acute/Emergent Presentation 7. rescue angioplasty during acute coronary syndrome 8. thrombolysis 9. anti-platelet therapy and heparin for acute coronary syndrome 10. IV beta-blockers for acute coronary syndrome 6

7 Risk Factors and Treatments of Known Efficacy/Significant Impact II Ambulatory/Chronic Heart Disease 11. oral beta-blockers after myocardial infarction 12. statins 13. anti-platelet therapy and anti-coagulation 14. omega-3 fatty acid supplementation 15. coronary artery bypass graft surgery/percutaneous intervention 16. pacemakers 17. ACE inhibitors/arbs for left ventricular dysfunction 18. spironolactone or eplerinone for left ventricular dysfunction 19. implantable cardioverter defibrillators/biventricular pacemakers 20. cardiac rehabilitation 21. management of supraventricular arrhythmias 22. management of valvular dysfunction 7

10 i?rid=hstat2.chapter

11 Major Findings and Recommendations of the Panel 5.There is a strong dose-response relation between the intensity of tobacco dependence counseling and its effectiveness. Treatments involving person-toperson contact (via individual, group, or proactive telephone counseling) are consistently effective, and their effectiveness increases with treatment intensity (e.g., minutes of contact). i?rid=hstat2.chapter

12 Major Findings and Recommendations of the Panel 6. Three types of counseling and behavioral therapies were found to be especially effective and should be used with all patients attempting tobacco cessation: Provision of practical counseling (problem-solving/skills training) Provision of social support as part of treatment (intra-treatment social support) i?rid=hstat2.chapter

13 Major Findings and Recommendations of the Panel 7. Numerous effective pharmacotherapies for smoking cessation now exist. Except in the presence of contraindications, these should be used with all patients attempting to quit smoking. Five first-line pharmacotherapies were identified that reliably increase long-term smoking abstinence rates: Bupropion SR (Zyban) Nicotine Nasal Spray Nicotine Gum Nicotine Patch Nicotine Inhaler i?rid=hstat2.chapter

14 Major Findings and Recommendations of the Panel 7. (Continued) Two second-line pharmacotherapies were identified as efficacious and may be considered by clinicians if first-line pharmacotherapies are not effective Clonidine Nortriptyline Over-the-counter nicotine patches are effective relative to placebo, and their use should be encouraged. i?rid=hstat2.chapter

15 Varenicline (Chantix) Partial nicotine agonist About twice as effective as Zyban* Not tested in patients with psychiatric disease. Ask about psychiatric history. If positive, don t use or use with caution i?rid=hstat2.chapter

19 the rats resisted to the daily loading into the exposure tubes and continued to struggle inside the tubes right after the beginning of the exposure. By and large, the rats of the sidestream groups reacted more vigorously than those of the mainstream group. the rats of the sidestream groups continued to show shaggy fur and some pronounced respiratory symptoms characterized by whistling and rattling sounds. 1 rat of the mainstream group, 9 rats of the puffed and 11 of the nonpuffed sidestream group died spontaneously. The rats of the sham and the cage control groups increased their body weight during the 21 days of exposure The sidestream groups showed a decrease to approx. 80 percent of their initial body weight. 19

57 Putting It All Together Smoke-free - No smoking, no exposure to tobacco smoke Diet - Mediterranean, olive or canola oil, red meat = salmon, white meat = tuna, daily serving of nuts Physical Activity - 10,000 steps/day Pharmacoprophylaxis - lifelong ASA, betablocker, statin. Goal LDL<70. Goal SBP~120. If reduced LV function - Beta-blocker, ACE inhibitor, spironolactone, ICD, consider biventricular pacemaker if QRS is wide 57

58 Based on current estimates, the greatest potential impact of intervention on heart disease mortality in a population would come from: 1. Encouraging patients to buy defibrillators for their homes and cars 2. Reducing door-to-balloon time for patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction 3. Convincing eligible patients to accept an implantable defibrillator 4. Improving risk profiles in individuals who are not known to have heart disease 58

64 Objectives Describe a model of heart disease and heart disease risk that is composed of 3 prevalence pools and 3 event streams. Describe the potential reduction in total mortality in the United States in terms of deaths prevented or postponed (DPP) as a result of perfect care for heart disease and heart disease risk factors. Describe the contribution to total deaths prevented or postponed by a) acute events and b) treatment of individuals before or between events as a result of perfect care. 64
