title: What does it mean to improve prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease?
abstract: When improvement in prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease is the goal, the physician must be knowledgeable about the patient-related factors and the fact that therapies influence prognosis in such patients. Further, the clinician must be very specific in choice of therapeutic agents directed toward improvement of prognosis, and this process must include prescriptions of appropriate formulation and dosage.
