The management of non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) has rapidly evolved over the last few years and many guidelines have been provided and already updated. This book is based on the latest ESC Guidelines and reports the current knowledge in NSTE-ACS, together with the most recent therapeutic options and the different strategies that can be applied according to the clinical status of patients. International experts address the different aspects of NSTE-ACS and bring useful information to clinicians, interventionalists and surgeons involved in the difficult management of these patients. The ESC Education SeriesThis book is part of the ESC Education Series. The series is designed to provide medical professionals with the latest information about the understanding, diagnosis and management of cardiovascular diseases. Where available, management recommendations are based on the established European Guidelines, which encompass the best techniques to use with each cardiac disease. Throughout the series, the leading international opinion leaders have been chosen to edit and contribute to the books. The information is presented in a succinct and accessible format with a clinical focus.
