Abstrakt: | Introduction and Objective: To determine the changes in the clinical and prognostic characteristics of patients admitted due to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) during the period between the years 2005 and 2015 in a provincial referral hospital. Material and Method: Cross-sectional observational study was conducted comparing the characteristics of ACS between 2005 and 2015. An analysis was made of the cardiovascular risk factors, treatment at discharge, complications, and mortality. Results: The incidence of ACS in 2015 was 15.3% lower. The incidence of hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidaemia was similar, but there were more smokers in 2015 (25.9% vs 18.3%, P=.005). Coronary reperfusion and the prescription of secondary prevention treatments increased compared to 2005. Hospital mortality was similar. Conclusion: The incidence of ACS has decreased in the last decade, in parallel with an improvement in the prognosis related to a more frequent use of the treatments recommended in the guidelines.
