Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are still at the first place in the case of mortality in European countries. Consistent secondary prevention for CVD is very important aspect in the fight with this negative statistics. We consider antithrombotic treatment as a gold standard in secondary prevention for CVD . There are a lot of latest trials about this problematics. COMPASS trial targets the effectiveness of rivaroxaban in patients with CVD as a secondary prevention. The results of this trial are very positive about using rivaroxaban and acetylsalicylic acid together in effort to avoid progression or relapse of CVD.
