Aims: A high number of patients do not achieve the therapeutic goals set by clinical practice guidelines, despite the therapeutic alternatives that currently exist in lipid-lowering treatment (LLT). This study aimed to estimate the proportion of patients who have recently suffered an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who do not meet the therapeutic goal with LLT and the proportion of routine follow-up visits where therapeutic inertia (TI) occurs.
Methods: A retrospective study chart review was conducted in 13 Spanish centres.
Background: The optimal radiofrequency application (RFa) parameters for safe and durable pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) are debated. High-power short-duration (HPSD) has been used as an alternative to conventional power delivery (CPD).
Objectives: This study sought to compare HPSD 70 W/9-10 s (HPSD-70) with CPD 25-40 W in patients undergoing PVI.

Objective: Provide consensus recommendations for the optimal management of fixed-dose combination therapies (FCT) in patients with cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) in primary care (PC).
Material And Methods: A modified Delphi technique was used. A scientific committee wrote 80 statements addressing controversial issues regarding adherence and the use of FCT in patients with CVRF.
