Comparison of LDL-C target achievement between those who completed CR in 2019 with the EUROASPIRE and DAVINCI studies
| Number of ‘very high risk’ patients (n) | Age (SD)* | Female | LDL-C target achieved | 
|---|---|---|---|
| CR 2019 (n = 142) | 62 (10) | 40 (25) | 96 (59) | 
| 2016 Guidelines (n = 99) | 63 (9) | 14 (28) | 70 (63) |

Table 6 compares absolute LDL-C target achievement between those that completed cardiac rehabilitation in 2019 with those examined in the EUROASPIRE V and DAVINCI studies. Unless where otherwise stated, values are given as the number with the percentage of the total sample size in brackets
Primary care = primary care practitioner only. Secondary care = regular attendance with a cardiologist, diabetologist or endocrinologist
*Values are displayed as mean (SD)
aBoth studies were conducted using the 2016 ESC guidelines
