Acute coronary syndromes in 2011: Walking the tightrope between efficacy and bleeding.

Nat Rev Cardiol. 2012 Feb;9(2):69-71

Authors: Kohli P, Cannon CP

Abstract

Major advances in the diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) have occurred in 2011, but physicians treating ACS still walk the tightrope between efficacy and bleeding. Key publications have shed light on this delicate balance and heralded a new era of novel oral anticoagulants for the treatment of ACS.
