NCT ID NCT06456658

Summary

This study tested two ways to remind doctors to prescribe cholesterol-lowering statin drugs to eligible patients. Over 3,300 patients were involved. Researchers compared pop-up alerts that interrupt a doctor's work with quieter reminders that doctors must seek out, to see which method leads to more prescriptions.
