- W72196052 abstract "72 Aim To audit compliance with the 2011 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for prescribing antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy in patients diagnosed with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS). Methods Five-month audit at Cardiac Catheterisation Suite, Mater Dei Hospital, Malta. A data collection form for inpatients diagnosed with NSTE-ACS was developed, psychometrically evaluated and completed for each patient by the investigator. Comparative analysis to assess whether these patients were being managed according to the guidelines was undertaken . Results 165 patients were recruited; 73% were male, 37% were between 66 and 75 years and 44% were active smokers. The most common risk factors for cardiovascular disease in these patients were hypertension (27%), dyslipidemia and obesity (both 16%). 41% of the patients underwent a percutaneous coronary intervention, either ad hoc (34%) or elective (7%). Compliance to guidelines for prescription of aspirin and clopidogrel 300mg loading dose was 95% and 88% respectively. Compliance to guidelines for prescription of aspirin and clopidogrel 75mg daily maintenance dose was 97% and 96% respectively. Compliance to guidelines for prescription of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) was only 19%; 81% of the patients were prescribed omeprazole against guideline recommendations. Compliance to guidelines for prescription of anticoagulation therapy was 95% with respect to prescription of heparin treatment in combination with DAPT. Compliance to guidelines for prescription of enoxaparin was 81%. Compliance to guidelines for other antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs recommended in the guidelines, including ticagrelor, prasugrel, glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists, fondaparinux and bivalirudin, was not measured. Conclusions Prescription of antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy for NSTE-ACS in Malta is predominantly in accordance with ESC guidelines. Alternative antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs and PPIs should be included in the Maltese hospital formulary to improve NSTE-ACS management in line with guideline recommendations.
