The implementation of secondary prophylaxis involves several steps:
Identification: Recognizing individuals who are at risk of disease recurrence or complications. Intervention: Administering appropriate treatments or lifestyle modifications to prevent the recurrence. Monitoring: Regular follow-ups to ensure the effectiveness of the prophylactic measures.
For example, in the case of cardiovascular diseases, patients may be prescribed medications such as statins or anticoagulants, along with lifestyle changes like diet and exercise.
