NCT02373319

Brief Summary

The aims of this study are (1) to validate a self-screening method for cardiovascular (CV) risk that does not require the supervision of a health professional (including self-measurement of blood pressure, lipid profile evaluated by dry chemistry, and self-administered questionnaires on sex, age, diabetes, and tobacco consumption). (2) From these data, the investigators will generate personalized recommendations based on the best available evidence. The investigators will also analyze whether this innovative approach improves adherence to preventive recommendations for cardiovascular and other chronic diseases.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pre-post changes in blood lipid levels

    Pre-post changes in mean levels of blood lipid levels (total, HDL and LDL cholesterol). Blood samples will be obtained at baseline and 12 months after the intervention.

    [Time frame: From baseline to 12 months after the intervention]

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Pre-post changes in controlled blood lipid levels

    From baseline to 12 months after the intervention

  • Pre-post changes in controlled blood pressure

    From baseline to 12 months after the intervention

  • Pre-post changes in controlled body mass index

    From baseline to 12 months after the intervention

  • Pre-post differences in smoking status

    From baseline to 12 months after the intervention

  • Mean difference between two methods of cardiovascular risk estimation

    From baseline to 30 minutes

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
