Abstract

We administered a knowledge and attitudes questionnaire regarding a technology assisted pharmacist mediated academic detailing intervention designed to improve physician adherence to coronary heart disease (CHD) secondary-prevention guidelines. Questionnaires were administered in two settings: an academic hospital and a community hospital. More knowledgeable physicians reported being more likely to prescribe a pharmacists' recommended medication and to agree that lipid profiles should be automatically performed for inpatients with elevated troponin.
