The growing number of older patients and their differential characteristics make its management a challenge in clinical practice. The aim of this review is to summarize the state-of-the-art in diagnosis and treatment of acute coronary syndromes in this subgroup of patients. This comprises peculiarities of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) management, updated evidence of non-STEMI therapeutic strategies, individualization of antiplatelet treatment (weighting ischemic and hemorrhagic risks), as well as assessment of geriatric conditions and ethical issues in decision making.16 p.application/pdfengcc by (c) García Blas, Sergio et al, 2021http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/Malalties coronàriesPersones gransCoronary heart diseaseOlder peopleAcute Coronary Syndrome in the Older Patientinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7205052021-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess34575243
