Introduction: The use of a predictive scale for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) can play an essential role in screening high-risk individuals. This study aimed to develop the ACS predictive scale (ACS-PS) and investigate its construct validity, reliability, sensitivity and specificity. Methods: This was a retrospective methodological study with the aim of developing a predictive scale for ACS in Iran in 2019. In this study, the content validity (content validity index [CVI] and content validity ratio [CVR]), construct validity, sensitivity, specificity, cutoff point and internal consistency of t

Abstract:
Non-invasive imaging modalities are fundamental in evaluating and managing patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Multimodality cardiac imaging procedures detect the presence of CAD and guide clinical decision-making. Combining anatomical and functional imaging modalities would enable a more thorough characterization of obstructive CAD. When selecting an imaging test, one must consider the many factors that interact in the development of chronic CAD and acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

SummaryCurrent antithrombotic therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) comprises antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy. Dual antiplatelet therapy composed of aspirin plus a third generation P2Y12 inhibitor (prasugrel or ticagrelor) represents the gold standard, while aspirin plus second generation P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel) may be used as an alternative in the presence of contraindications for third generation P2Y12 inhibitors and/or a high risk of bleeding.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a leading cause of mortality, requiring prompt prehospital intervention. Paramedics play a key role in early recognition, pharmacological management, and risk-stratification. ACS results from myocardial ischaemia caused by atherosclerotic plaque rupture, presenting as ST elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST elevation myocardial infarction, or unstable angina. Key prehospital treatments include aspirin, glyceryl trinitrate, and morphine.

Abstract:
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a set of signs and symptoms caused by a reduction of coronary blood flow with subsequent myocardial ischemia. ACS is associated with activation of the leukotriene (LT) pathway with subsequent releases of various LTs, including LTB4, LTC4, and LTD4, which cause inflammatory changes and induction of immunothrombosis. LTs through cysteine leukotriene (CysLT) induce activation of platelets and clotting factors with succeeding coronary thrombosis. CysLT receptor (CysLTR) antagonists such as montelukast (MK) may reduce the risk of the development of ACS and associate

The term ‘acute coronary syndrome’ encompasses STEMI,NSTEMI, and UA. The electrocardiogram identifies those with STEMI. An elevated troponin level measured at least 12 hours after the onset of pain distinguishes NSTEMI from UA. However, the separation of NSTEMI and UA is somewhat artificial, as the management of individual patients is based on their risk score, with troponin being only a small part of the equation. Patients at moderate to high risk of death, MI, or subsequent admission to hospital should be offered early coronary arteriography with a view to revascularisation. The CLARITY and

Abstract:
In recent years, much progress has been made in the field of antithrombotic drugs in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treatment, as reflected by the introduction of the more potent P2Y12-inhibitors prasugrel and ticagrelor, and novel forms of concomitant anticoagulation, such as fondaparinux and bivalirudin. However, despite substantial improvements in contemporary ACS treatment, there remains residual ischemic risk in this group and hence the need for even more effective antithrombotic drugs, while balancing antithrombotic efficacy against bleeding risk.
