Though this programme, we have produced key recommendations on secondary prevention post MI based on a literature review, issued a summary report from the Health Professional Survey conducted to identify perceived barriers to implementation, published a consensus document on the Challenges in Secondary Prevention after Acute Myocardial Infarction (EJPC, published online on 7 Sept 2016) and published an Educational Paper on Risk Prediction Tools that provides a summary of the available risk prediction algorithms, guidance on how to use them and a decision aid flowchart to help select the most appropriate tool (EJPC, published on 25 June 2019).
