“…Despite major advances in the pharmacological treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD), it remains the leading cause of death (1) and is the chief cause of premature, permanent disability in the workforce (2). Projections suggest that for CHD the mortality for all developing world will increase by 120% for women and 137% for men.…”

“…Since its inception in 1985, the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) has battled to reduce the prevalence of high blood cholesterol through educational campaigns and science‐based practice guidelines. However, the cholesterol levels are still undertreated (2). Only in populations that maintain very low levels of serum cholesterol, e.g.…”

“…However, the reduction in homocysteine level had no effect on the primary outcome of the study. No significant benefit was observed for patients treated with vitamin B 6 . Of interest, patients who received folic acid, vitamin B 12 , and vitamin B 6 experienced a trend toward an increased risk of adverse events.…”

“…In 2004-2006, these collections of annotative bibliographies were published on the topics of ACS, arrhythmias, hypertension, systolic heart failure, and dyslipidemias. [2][3][4][5][6] These documents serve as excellent reviews and resources for pharmacists, physicians, nurses, residents, and students. Because of the rapidly changing evidence in cardiology, these reviews need to be updated.…”

Key Articles and Guidelines in the Management of Acute Coronary Syndromes and in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: 2007 Update

et al. 2007

Clinical evidence in the management of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) continues to evolve at a rapid pace. For clinicians to provide optimal care for these patients, it is important to keep up with new information as it becomes available. With the existence of numerous pharmacologic agents, abundance of major clinical trials, and several nationally recognized clinical guidelines, compiling the needed reference material to make evidence-based decisions on the care of patients with ACS or those undergoing PCI can be difficult for clinicians. Therefore, we provide an update to the first compiled bibliography of key articles and guidelines relative to patients with ACS published in Pharmacotherapy in 2004. A number of guidelines and practice-changing literature have been published since the initial 2004 document. We hope that this compilation will serve as a resource for pharmacists, physicians, nurses, residents, and students responsible for the care of patients with coronary heart disease.

“…For almost a decade now The Cardiology Practice and Research Network of the American College of Clinical Pharmacy has been developing key articles and guidelines documents in major focus areas of cardiology. In 2004–2006 the first five collections of annotative bibliographies were published on the topics of ACS, arrhythmias, hypertension, systolic heart failure, and dyslipidemias . Over the following years a number of additional key article and guideline documents have been published .…”

Key Articles and Guidelines in the Management of Acute Coronary Syndrome and in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: 2012 Update

et al. 2012

More than 1 million people in the United States experience an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) every year, and almost 600,000 undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for treatment of cardiovascular disease. There is a large amount of evidence-based literature to guide appropriate management of these patients. There have been a number of advances in the treatment of these patients over the last several years. Due to the large amount of rapidly available literature concerning the care of patients with ACS or undergoing PCI, clinicians can often find it difficult to keep up with the information needed for optimizing care of these patients. Therefore, we provide the second update to the first compiled bibliography of key articles and guidelines relative to patients with ACS published in Pharmacotherapy in 2004. The initial update was published in Pharmacotherapy in 2007 and also included bibliographies concerning management of patients undergoing PCI. A number of guidelines and practice-changing literature have been published since the update in 2007. Specific areas included in this review are updated summaries of clinical practice guidelines and clinical trials of anticoagulants, antiplatelets, platelet aggregation testing, pharmacogenomics testing in patients taking clopidogrel, clopidogrel loading dose comparisons, clopidogrel and proton pump inhibitor drug interactions, the impact of bleeding in ACS, and statins. As with previous versions of this document, we hope that this compilation will serve as a resource for pharmacists, physicians, nurses, residents, and students responsible for the care of patients with coronary heart disease.
