# Evaluation of risk factor profiles for acute coronary syndrome among Indian adults

## TL;DR

This study examines risk factors for acute coronary syndrome in Indian adults, finding higher risk in males aged 30-40.

## Contribution

The study provides insights into gender and age-specific risk profiles for acute coronary syndrome in India.

## Key findings

- Males were more affected by risk factors for ACS than females.
- The highest risk was observed in individuals aged 30-40 years.
- Symptoms like chest pain and palpitations were significant indicators.

## Abstract

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) refers to a group of conditions that include ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST
elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and unstable angina. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the risk factor (R/F) of ACS.
Hence, 67 patients underwent investigation with the help of history and clinical examination test like electrocardiogram (ECG), blood
sugar and lipid level. Data shows R/F was seen more for males than females with 30-40 years of age range. Thus, we conclude that,
multiple complications like chest pain, palpitation, sweating, vomiting and giddiness should not be overlooked.
