BackgroundPatients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) after acute coronary artery syndrome (ACS) are at an increased risk of heart failure and death. However, β-blockers have been underused in this population group due to concerns of adverse reactions.ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the β-blocker prescription at admission and its impact on the in-hospital outcomes in patients with COPD after ACS in a Chinese national cohort.MethodsAmong 113,650 patients with ACS enrolled in the national registry of the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China between November 2014 and July 2019, a total of 1,084 ACS patients with COPD were included in this study.
