PEMBERTHY-LOPEZ, Carolina et al. Treatment of older adults with acute coronary syndrome. Rev. Colomb. Cardiol. [online]. 2016, vol.23, n.6, pp.514-522. Epub 09-Jul-2016. ISSN 0120-5633. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rccar.2016.04.018.
Older adults find themselves at a stage in their life with important physiological alterations that have a direct and indirect impact on their clinical status, hence why the diagnostic and therapeutic approach of their conditions must be faced from a different perspective, taking into account specific considerations for this population group. Unfortunately, this group has not received proper representation in different studies and therefore a lot remains unknown: their behaviour and efficacy of various therapies have not been appropriately established. Taking into account acute coronary syndrome as the main cause for mortality in patients over 65 years old, we will face this condition from evidence gathered from some of the most important registers regarding this topic in older adults.
