Thus, this trial does not imply any additional risk for patients.\n\nFurthermore, if this strategy is proved to be effective, it may be offered as a new clinical practice that might benefit brazilian patients.\n\nBRIDGE-CV consists of a quality improvement project by the incorporation of evidence based interventions in public and private hospitals in Brazil. The chosen setting is cardiovascular prevention in high risk patients since cardiovascular diseases represent the major cause of death in Brazil.\n\nIt will be developed a cluster randomized trial, where hospitals will be allocated to receive or not the multifaceted intervention.\n\nThe patients will be followed for 12 months in order to assess if the multifaceted intervention can increase the evidence based prescriptions. If this is the case, this tool package may be offered as a quality improvement intervention for all hospitals.\n\nSites will be selected through the HCor investigators network. Invited sites must complete a screening form in order to verify eligibility and feasibility of application of the BRIDGE CV tools.Clusters will be randomized and allocated 1:1 to the Multifaceted Intervention Group or to the Control Group. Once the hospital/center is allocated to one of the groups every patient at that institution must be assisted following the same procedures.\n\nThe randomization list will be created considering a random function with equal probability of being allocated to each of the groups. Each site will receive a code number and just this numbers will be used during randomization. This procedure will be performed by the HCor statistician ensuring allocation concealment. The study coordinator will inform the site what procedures must be taken, without revealing to the statistician which hospitals are allocated to the intervention group.\n\nThe sample will be stratified considering primary care centers and secondary/tertiary outpatients' clinics.\n\nConsidering the open nature of the study, treatment allocation will not be blinded to the investigators, health care providers and patients.\n\nHowever, clinical outcomes will be assessed and validated by a blinded committee."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '40 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients over 40 years old, with manifested atherothrombotic diseases ( coronary artery disease, stroke or transient ischemic attack, or peripheral artery disease)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients from institutions that don't provide the Institutional Authorization Term, as well as patients that withdraw Inform Consent for Data Collection.\n* Patients with a history of atrial fibrillation or that at the discretion of the physician needs anticoagulation, will be excluded."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02851732', 'acronym': 'BRIDGE-CV', 'briefTitle': 'Brazilian inteRvention to Increase eviDence usaGe in practicE - Cardiovascular Prevention', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Hospital do Coracao'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Cluster Randomized Trial Evaluating the Effect of a Multifaceted Intervention to Increase Evidence Based Strategies Usage for Cardiovascular Prevention.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'BRIDGE0003'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control', 'description': 'Clusters randomized to the control group will keep their usual practice standards.
