摘要：1 Introduction
Societies are ageing at an accelerated pace.This scenario is a well-known challenge for health care systems,as chronic diseases,multiple comorbidities and dependency are all entities that often converge in the elderly.Besides,there is an issue regarding a reduction in the general incidence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) together with a delayed in the age of presentation,which,in sum,lead to an increase in both incidence and prevalence of ACS with age,especially non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).On the other hand,age per se is one of the most important predictors of mortality but also morbidity in the setting of ACS,thus being present in most risk scores for ischemic and haemorrhagic events in this scenario.
