Brief summary
For the management of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), some guidelines recommend initial statin treatment with high-intensity statins to achieve at least a 50% reduction in LDL-C levels. High-intensity or maximally tolerated intensity can be maintained without a target goal. However, the European guideline recommends less than 55 mg/dL of LDL-C after PCI.
