[Acetylsalicylic acid consumption in patients with diabetes mellitus]
Abstract
Background and objective: Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) has been recommended for primary (PP) and secondary prevention (SP) of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in diabetic patients. The consumption of ASA among Catalan diabetic people is described here.
Subjects and method: We analyzed 1,718 questionnaires administered to members of the Catalonia's Diabetic Association. ASA intake, history of CVD and medical advice about the use of ASA were evaluated.
Results: ASA was taken by 21% subjects (as PP in 14% and as SP in 53%). Medical advice had been received in 23% (15% as PP and 56% as SP).
Conclusions: ASA intake among diabetic patients is low in both PP and SP. Physicians should recommend its use to improve this situation.
