چکیده
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The "DAT-AP" (from the Spanish, "Dislipemia ATerogénica en Atención Primaria", for Atherogenic Dyslipidaemia in Primary Care) study objective is to determine to what extent published consensus guidelines for the diagnostic and therapeutic management of AD are used in the primary care setting, and to evaluate the approach of the participating physicians towards the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of AD. METHODS This is descriptive, cross-sectional, multicentre study performed between January and May 2015 in primary care centres throughout Spain. Study data were collected in 2 independent blocks, the first addressing theoretical aspects of AD and the second, practical aspects (clinical cases) RESULTS: The theoretical part is in the process of publication. This manuscript depicts the clinical cases block. Although study participants showed good knowledge of the subject, the high prevalence of this disease requires an additional effort to optimise detection and treatment, with the implementation of appropriate lifestyle interventions and the prescription of the best treatment.
