Background.
The Cardiovascular Risk Reduction Clinic (CRRC) in Perry County, Alabama, provides free pharmacist-led services.
Clinic goals include improving health outcomes and reducing cardiovascular risk factors.
Objective.
To investigate the effectiveness of the CRRC in rural Perry County, Alabama.
The reduction of the modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, blood pressure and body mass index, was evaluated to measure a decrease from baseline to last clinic date.
Methods.
This retrospective chart review identified 130 patients with at least two blood pressure and BMI measurements from baseline to June 30, 2010.
The patients’ paper files were used to collect baseline data and most recent measurements, which were recorded on a data collection sheet.
Results.
There was a statistically significant reduction in systolic blood pressure of 4.08 mmHg, 3.25 mmHg reduction in diastolic blood pressure, and 0.42 kg/m2 reduction in mean BMI.
At their last visit prior to June 30, 2010, 59% of hypertensive patients and 35% of diabetic patients were meeting their blood pressure goals.
Conclusion.
Pharmacist-led management of patients with cardiovascular risk factors significantly reduced blood pressure and allowed more patients to meet their hypertension treatment goals.
Despite being modest, reductions in blood pressure and BMI help reduce overall cardiovascular risks.
