title: A tool for more accurate risk-prediction in acute coronary syndrome.
abstract: Standardized guidelines are fine, but one size does not fit all when it comes to cardiac patients. In fact, clinicians often struggle with deciding how aggressively to treat a patient who has suffered a heart attack or another form of acute coronary syndrome. However, a new risk-prediction tool can help guide clinicians to more precise conclusions regarding patient care.
