Resumen: Background and aims: Despite considerable evidence that lipid-lowe ring therapies (LLTs) afford clinical benefit, the control of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is suboptimal, and available LLTs are underused, especially in patients at high and very high cardiovascular (CV) risk. This study assesses the real-world LDL-C target attainment rate in patients on LLT before experiencing a first major acute cardiovascular event (MACE). Methods and results: The HEARTBEAT was a retrospective, multicentre observational study. From March to June 2021 a total of 334 patients on LLT who had a first MACE while being on statins were included in the study. Of these patients, 83.2 % had a high (40.7 %) or very high CV risk (29.0 %) prior to MACE. Overall, 87.5 % and 89.7 % of the patients at high and very high CV risk, respectively, failed to reach the LDL-C target. Regarding LLTs, only 11.8 % and 19.6 % of the patients at high and very high risk had received high-intensity LLTs prior to MACE. It was estimated that if these patients had reached their recommended LDL-C targets, the risk of MACE may have been reduced by a median of 24.5 % and 23.2 % in patients at high and very high risk respectively. Conclusions: Patients who suffer a first MACE while on statin therapy often were at high/very high CV risk. Despite their risk, LDL-levels and being on statins they are undertreated, and too far from lipid targets. A proper use of high-intensity LLTs led to an increase attainment of LDL targets and lower CV events. (c) 2023 The Author(s).
