Risk calculators and risk factors for Coronary heart disease secondary prevention renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

2011 AHA/ACCF Guidelines for Secondary Prevention and Risk Reduction Therapy for Patients with Coronary and other Atherosclerotic Vascular Disease (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

ACE Inhibitors (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class I
"1. ACE inhibitors should be started and continued indefinitely in all patients with left ventricular ejection fraction]] ≤40% and in those with hypertension, diabetes, or chronic kidney disease, unless contraindicated. [2][3] (Level of Evidence: A)"
Class IIa
"1. It is reasonable to use ACE inhibitors in all other patients. [4] (Level of Evidence: B)

ARBs (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class I
"1. The use of ARBs is recommended in patients who have heart failure or who have had a myocardial infarction with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40% and who are ACE-inhibitor intolerant. [5][6][7] (Level of Evidence: A)"
Class IIa
"1. It is reasonable to use ARBs in other patients who are ACE-inhibitor intolerant. [8] (Level of Evidence: B)
Class IIb
"1. The use of ARBs in combination with an ACE inhibitor is not well established in those with systolic heart failure. [7][9] (Level of Evidence: A)

Aldosterone Blockade (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class I
"1. Use of aldosterone blockade in post–myocardial infarction patients without significant renal dysfunction# or hyperkalemia** is recommended in patients who are already receiving therapeutic doses of an ACE inhibitor and β-blocker, who have a left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%, and who have either diabetes or heart failure. [10][11] (Level of Evidence: A)"
# Estimated creatinine clearance should be >30 mL/min.
** Potassium should be <5.0 mEq/L.
