Public consultation: Acute Coronary Syndromes guideline
We are seeking your feedback on the updated National Heart Foundation of Australia and the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand’s: Australian clinical guideline for diagnosing and managing Acute Coronary Syndromes.
The updated Australian clinical guideline for diagnosing and managing Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) provides recommendations for health professionals on screening, preventing, diagnosing, and managing ACS. It was developed in line with the National Health and Medical Research Council guideline standards, and has been drafted by clinical experts.
To ensure the guideline is of the highest quality, and meets the needs of both health professionals and people with ACS, we encourage health organisations, health professionals, and the broader community to provide feedback.
The guideline public consultation will be open from 27 September to 28 October 2024. Note that there will be no extensions beyond this timeframe.
