Abstract
Aim: to assess the awareness of doctors about the main provisions of the European and Russian clinical guidelines for the management of patients with dyslipidemia and arterial hypertension (AH).
Material and methods. Anonymous survey of 584 physicians and cardiologists of Krasnodar and Krasnodar Territory was carried out. The questionnaire contained 9 multiple-choice questions.
Results: according to the results of the questionnaire, 1/3 of doctors knew the target values of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in very high-risk patients. If the target level of LDL cholesterol was not achieved on an adequate dose of statin, 75.1% of colleagues would not have added ezetimibe. For hypertriglyceridemia in patients receiving an adequate dose of statins, 47% of physicians would prescribe treatment that does not comply with clinical guidelines. More than half of the doctors gave correct answers to the questions about antihypertensive therapy. However, the target level of blood pressure was incorrectly indicated by 47.3% of respondents, 71.6% of colleagues made a mistake with the tactics of starting therapy, and 51.5% of doctors incorrectly assessed the situation with the prescription of a triple fixed combination of drugs.
Conclusion: а significant part of practicing doctors (therapists and cardiologists) were not sufficiently informed about the main provisions of the new recommendations and were guided by old (outdated) ideas.
