Abstract

For the first time, the European Society of Cardiology has drafted guidelines which encompass the management of the entire spectrum of patients with acute coronary syndrome, ranging from cardiogenic shock or cardiac arrest to ST-segment as well as non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, to unstable angina. Some of the modified, as well as new recommendations include cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, diagnostic workup, antithrombotic therapy, timing of invasive strategy, intravascular imaging and revascularization in multivessel coronary artery disease. In addition, and for the first time, one entire section is dedicated to the patient's perspective and shared decision.
