Cardiovascular Prevention Supported by Digital Technology: Comparison With the Traditional Model

Cardiovascular diseases represent one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Prevention in patients at cardiovascular risk is essential to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events and slow the progression of risk.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of a cardiovascular prevention pathway delivered remotely through a digital application, comparing it with a traditional in-person care pathway.
