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.
