COLL MUNOZ, Yanier; VALLADARES CARVAJAL, Francisco  e  GONZALEZ RODRIGUEZ, Claudio. Acute Myocardial Infarction. An Update of the Clinical Practice Guideline. Rev. Finlay [online]. 2016, vol.6, n.2, pp.170-190. ISSN 2221-2434.

Clinical practice guidelines present all relevant evidence on a particular issue in order to help physicians select the best treatment strategies. This guideline aims to optimize the diagnostic process and treatment of acute myocardial infarction, to assess adherence to issued guidelines and to propose changes based on the results obtained. It refers to patients with ischemic symptoms or their equivalents, persistent ST-segment elevation or ST-segment and T-wave changes consistent with the diagnosis of non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction. Elements directly related to percutaneous coronary intervention and surgical myocardial revascularization are not addressed. A search in databases and major international guidelines was conducted to tailor recommendations to our conditions.
