Pharmacist-led care pathway
Participants in the intervention arm will receive the care using a shared decision-making pharmacist-led care pathway designed to guide the cardiovascular (CV) risk reduction process. The pharmacist-led care pathway is modelled after the largest CV risk reduction randomized controlled trial in a community pharmacy setting (RxEACH Study), and based upon the latest CV risk reduction guidelines, such as C-CHANGE. This pathway will be built into a computer web-based program and include step-by-step, algorithm-guided patient assessment to calculate the participant's estimated CV risk. The participant and pharmacist will be guided by the care pathway to review the participant's estimated CV risk and contributing CV risk factors and engage in shared decision-making to manage the participant's CV risk factors using lifestyle changes and/or pharmacological treatment as clinically appropriate.
