Emedinews:Makesure:A patient with LDL cholesterol 100 mg/dL and hsCRP 3 developed MI.


Situation: A patient with LDL cholesterol 100 mg/dL and hsCRP 3 developed MI.
Reaction: Oh my God! Why was a statin not started earlier?
Lesson: Make sure all patients with even normal cholesterol are considered for statins if the hsCRP is high.
