Synopsis

Acute coronary syndromes encompasses the spectrum of clinical disorders caused by acute ischemic heart disease -- unstable angina, ST-elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction -- which account for 2 million hospitalizations and 30% of all deaths in the United States each year alone. Despite major advances in diagnosis and treatment, tens of thousands of lives are lost each year due to delays in diagnosis, failure to implement potent pharmacological and interventional strategies, and inconsistent application of secondary preventive measures. ACS Essentials integrates the latest clinical guidelines and trials into a concise, practical, and authoritative guide to the management of acute coronary syndromes. Step-by-step instruction, important clinical trials, common management pitfalls, and other cardiovascular risk reduction measures are emphasized.
