Mellow ..thx for that detail Re " Clinical ASCVD would indeed be under secondary prevention and an event is not required:
Documented coronary artery disease (CAD; one or more of the following primary criteria must be satisfied): • Documented multi vessel CAD (≥50% stenosis in at least two major epicardial coronary arteries – with or without antecedent revascularization); "
----------------- And that's my "problem ". I know I have coronary plaques as per a Cardiac Cath in 2016 ( failed an echo stress test )...just not enough stenosis to require stenting .....just max medical therapy.
So under strict interpretation of the above..... >50% stenosis in 2 major coronaries ......CAD patients such as myself would not get prescribed " on label " ....correct ?
