Among 1000 French cardiologists, the ECART study investigated drug prescription in 1041 patients with coronary heart disease, before and after percutaneous coronary interventions. The baseline drug prescription rate CAD patients were the following: beta-blockers 96%, antiplatelets agents 85%, statines 56%, nitrates 36%, calcium blockers 26% and ACE inhibitors 8.7%. The main changes in patients having undergone PCI were: a significant increase in antiplatelets agents (to 97%), ACE inhibitors (to 29%) and statins (to 94%), a significant decrease in nitrates (to 23%). The calcium blockers rate remains unchanged at 26%. Those results are discussed in the field of evidence based medicine and are compared with data from previous drug prescription studies in post myocardial infarction or in secondary prevention.
