Abstract

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) encompasses a spectrum of myocardial ischemic conditions, including unstable angina, Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI), and ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Understanding the multifaceted nature of ACS is essential for effective management and improved patient outcomes.

This narrative review provides a comprehensive exploration of ACS, covering various facets crucial to its comprehension. The article delves into the diverse risk factors contributing to ACS development and delve into the intricate pathophysiological mechanisms that underlie its manifestation. Additionally, it elucidate the wide-ranging clinical presentations and symptoms commonly encountered in ACS patients. A critical examination of diagnostic challenges is also undertaken, with a specific focus on cardiac biomarkers and electrocardiographic changes, addressing the complexities and variations in these key diagnostic elements.

This narrative review offers an extensive overview of Acute Coronary Syndrome, shedding light on its multifactorial etiology, intricate pathophysiology, and diverse clinical presentations. By addressing diagnostic nuances related to cardiac biomarkers and electrocardiographic changes, this review contributes to a deeper understanding of the challenges in ACS diagnosis. A comprehensive grasp of ACS is essential for healthcare professionals to facilitate timely interventions and enhance patient care, ultimately leading to improved clinical outcomes.
