The point of the COURAGE trial is that optimal medical management is an intensive intervention.  Treatment of CAD can be approached with the alphabetical mnemonic ABCDEF. Provide a list and short description of what each letter stands for in regards to medical management of CAD.  The first example is completed for you: A = Aspirin and ACE Inhibitors Aspirin reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease and should be prescribed in patients with known cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and other important risk factors. ACE inhibitors lower risk if patients with CAD and especially for patients with reduced left ventricular function.
