Secondary Prevention for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Toolkit

The SCAI Secondary Prevention Toolkit aims to reaffirm the role of the interventional cardiologist in recognizing system-level gaps in the care of PCI patients, as well as to provide resources aimed at reducing significant barriers to providing optimal care.
