Overview: We first discussed aspirin use for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease in 2022 when the USPSTF recommended against it. In this follow-up episode, we review new trial data reinforcing that guidance and help you translate the evidence into safer prevention strategies. Build confidence in supporting patients with evidence-based approaches to reduce cardiovascular risk.
