https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Cyclopamine.html Following the occurrence of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), patients are at high risk for subsequent cardiovascular events. Therapies to lower the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol remain a pillar in secondary prevention approaches following ACS. Significant variability remains in the application of therapies to lower cholesterol level in clinical practice. A cross-sectional, online survey was conducted of 200 cardiovascular and lipid specialists across Canada who routinely care for patients following the occurrence of ACSs. The survey consisted of 50 multiple-choice questions with opportunities for free-text entry exploring knowledge of lipid guidelines and recent clinical trials, and in-hospital and outpatient management of lipids and familial hypercholesterolemia. A total of 67.5% (n= 135) of participants stated that a lipid panel would routinely be obtained during the first 24 hours of an admission for an ACS, and 68.5% (n= 137) stated that their hospitals had standing orders for period. To improve management of lipids in this high-risk population, changes to institutional policies, shared responsibility of lipid management across multiple disciplines, and physician education are required. Antithrombotic management following acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) has evolved significantly. However, given lingering uncertainty as to when an ACS may be considered stable, there is the possibility of practice divergence beyond the first year. An online adaptive survey describing patients with varying cardiac and extracardiac ischemic risk was developed in order to asses self-reported physician practice intentions pertaining to the antithrombotic management of ACS patients who lack a formal indication for therapeutic anticoagulation. Provincial "champions" (Prince Edward Island not represented) were identified to ensure dissemination of the survey within their jurisdictions via 3 coordinated e-mailings
