Key Words Coronary artery disease; Dual antiplatelet therapy; Inequalities; Guidelines; Myocardial infarction
Core Tip Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in developed countries. Guidelines exist for the management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), yet despite these, significant inequalities exist in patient care. The elderly, deprived socioeconomic groups, females and non-Caucasians are the patient populations where practice tends to deviate from the evidence base. The purpose of this review article is to identify the inequalities in those who present with an AMI and explore potential reasons for this. Greater attention to the management and a better understanding of the root causes of these inequalities may help to reduce morbidity and mortality rates.
