  7. Acute Coronary SyndromesInvasive vs Conservative • Pathophysiology • Diagnosis • Initial Therapy • Risk-Stratification • Invasive vs Conservative • Discharge Planning

  8. Choose A Strategy • Initial Conservative – Angiography only if patient fails medical management (refractory or resting angina) or has objective evidence of ischemia (stress testing) • Initial Invasive – Angiography before failure of medical management or stress testing • Immediate angiography (ISAR-COOL) or • Deferred Angiography (all other trials – 12-48h)

  9. Choose A Strategy - Rationale • Initial Conservative • Early trials demonstrate similar efficacy (TIMI IIIB, MATE, VANQWISH, RITA-2) • Aggressive antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy has reduced events • Initial Invasive • Rapidly identify the 10-20% with nonocclusive CAD and the 20% with 3v CAD

  10. Less Events in Early Invasive Strategy

  11. SELECTION OF INITIAL TREATMENT STRATEGY: INITIAL INVASIVE VERSUS CONSERVATIVE STRATEGY

  12. Choose A Strategy – Guidelines • Initial invasive • Refractory angina or hemodynamic/electrical instability (Class I, B) • Initially stabilized patients without contraindications and with elevated risk for events (Class I, A) • Initial Conservative • May be considered in patients with elevated risk (Class IIb,B) • May consider physician or patient preference (Class IIb,C) • Women with low-risk features (Class I, B)

  13. Selection of Strategy: Invasive vs. Conservative Strategy (1) • An early invasive strategy (i.e., diagnostic angiography with intent to perform revascularization) is indicated with refractory angina or hemodynamic or electrical instability (I, B).

  14. Selection of Strategy: Invasive vs. Conservative Strategy (2) • An early invasive strategy is indicated in initially stabilized patients (without serious comorbidities or contraindications to such procedures) who have an elevated risk for clinical events (I, A). Scores indicating elevated risk include combinations of the following: • Recurrent angina/ischemia at rest or low-level activities • Elevated cardiac biomarkers • New/presumably new ST-segment depression • Signs or symptoms of HF or new/worsening mitral regurgitation • High-risk findings from noninvasive testing • Hemodynamic instability • Sustained ventricular tachycardia • PCI within 6 months • Prior CABG • High risk score • LVEF < 0.40

  15. Selection of Strategy: Invasive vs. Conservative Strategy (3) • In initially stabilized patients, an initially conservative (i.e., a selectively invasive) strategy may be considered in patients (without serious comorbidities or contraindications to such procedures) who have an elevated risk for clinical events, including those who are troponin-positive (IIb, B). The decision to implement an initial conservative strategy may consider physician and patient preferences (IIb, C). • A conservative strategy is recommended in women with low-risk features (I, B).
