ACS
ACS, or Acute Coronary Syndrome, refers to a group of urgent heart conditions caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, often due to a blockage in the coronary arteries. It includes conditions like heart attacks and unstable angina. When the heart doesn't receive enough oxygen-rich blood, it can lead to chest pain, damage to the heart muscle, and, if untreated, potentially life-threatening complications. Recognizing symptoms early and seeking immediate medical care are crucial for effective treatment and improved outcomes.
