Does targeted educational intervention improve guideline adherence and outcomes in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome?
Absolute Event Rate: 89% vs 78%
p-value: p=0.05
Targeted educational interventions to improve guideline adherence in non-ST elevation ACS are associated with increased use of evidence-based therapies and improved survival in high-risk patients.

May support targeted education in high-risk NSTE-ACS; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation before practice change.
Vikman et al. (2004) conducted an observational in Acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation (n=1,041). Targeted educational programmes on optimal practice vs. Standard practice before the educational intervention (FINACS I cohort) was evaluated on Survival at 6 months in high-risk patients (p=0.05). Targeted educational programmes on optimal practice improved 6-month survival in high-risk patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (89% vs. 78%, P=0.05).
