Abstract
Heartwatch is a national program in Irish general practice for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. The program--a joint initiative of the Irish Department of Health and Children, the Irish College of General Practitioners, and the Irish Heart Foundation--has a number of key components, many of which may be suitable for adapting to Australian primary care.
