Abstract
|
|
|
|
| Cardiovascular disease is the principal cause ofmorbidity and mortality in the Netherlands. In this background, various initiatives have been launched to reduce the frequency of cardiovascular disease. One of those is the creation of clinical units with a special focus on prevention of cardiovascular disease. Hitherto, the prevention programmes of these clinics have been heterogeneous and therefore difficult to compare with respect to results. Similar developments in creating clinical initiatives concerning prevention of cardiovascular disease are found across Europe. With this in mind, lessons could be learned from each other's experiences. In our contribution, we would like to present the Cardiovascular Prevention Clinic in the Pitie-Salpetriere re Hospital in Paris, France, as an interesting example of a well-acknowledged cardiovascular prevention clinic that combines both daily clinical care and cardiovascular science. |
