Title: Internet-based Vascular Risk Factor Management for Patients With Clinical Manifest Vascular Disease; a Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief Summary: The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of an internet based vascular risk factor program on top of usual care compared to usual care alone for treatment of vascular risk factors in patients at high risk for new vascular events.


Options:
A: Abbreviations: FBS = fasting blood sugar, SBP = systolic blood pressure, DBP = diastolic blood pressure, LDL = low-density lipoprotein, HDL = high-density lipoprotein, BMI = body mass index, TC = total cholesterol, TG = triglycerides, HbA1c = hemoglobin A1c.
