AHC/ACC Stenosis Morphology Classification Based Comparison of Coronary Angiographic Lesions in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and Chronic Stable Angina (CSA) in a Tertiary Care Centre
Abstract: Aim The study was designed to compare the coronary angiographic lesions in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and chronic stable angina (CSA) based on the American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology (AHC/ACC) stenosis morphology classification in a tertiary care center in Bangladesh. Methods We studied 215 angiographic lesions in 110 patients, including 55patients with ACS and 55 with CSA, who had coronary angiogram in the University Cardiac Center, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2009 to December 2009. Results Mean age of the study subjects was 52.210 years and 09 (11 %) of them were female.2 (4 %) of ACS and 6 (11 %) of CSA patients had normal coronary angiogram. Frequency of SVD was significantly higher (p
