Factfiles
Factfiles are produced for GPs to give clear, concise and
up-to-date information on issues relating to heart health.
Factfile authors are experts
in their field and the text is reviewed by a panel of health
professionals to ensure that a balanced article is produced.
Factfile launched in 1985 and you can download
any issue produced from 1998 onwards as a PDF. Up to twelve issues
are published per year. Please note that some articles have been
superseded and older Factfiles may contain out of date
information.
Factfile is distributed to over
50,000 GPs. New GPs can be added to the mailing
list, and other health professionals are encouraged to download
issues to help us distribute them in a cost effective way.
