Public Consultation: Updated Australian ACS Guideline Draft

Public consultation for the updated draft of the Australian clinical guideline for diagnosing and managing acute coronary syndromes (ACS) is now open!

 The National Heart Foundation of Australia and the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand invite you to provide your feedback on the updated draft of the Australian clinical guideline for diagnosing and managing acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The guideline provides evidence-based recommendations for health professionals on screening, preventing, diagnosing, and managing ACS.

Public consultation is an important part of the guideline development process and can improve a guideline’s quality, legitimacy and its acceptability to end users and the public. To ensure the guideline is of the highest quality, and meets the needs of both health professionals and people with ACS, we encourage health organisations, health professionals, and the broader community to provide feedback.

Click here to access the guideline and provide feedback.

The guideline public consultation period will be open from Friday 27 September 2024 to Monday 28 October 2024. There will be no extensions beyond this timeframe.

If you have any technical difficulties providing your feedback, please contact ACSpublicconsultation@heartfoundation.org.au (please note that we will not be responding to any feedback on the draft guideline through this email).
