OptimiZation Of Lipid Lowering Therapies Using a Decision Support System In Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome.

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare implementation of a Decision Support System (DSS) - aligned to the 2019 ESC/EAS Guidelines - in addition to routine clinical care versus routine clinical care without availability of a DSS, in participants aged ≥18 to \< 80 years old presenting with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). The main questions it aims to answer are: * to assess whether the availability of a DSS (which provides estimates of risk and estimates of potential benefit through LDL-C lowering) to current practice results in an increase in the early initiation of combination Lipid Lowering Therapies (LLTs) or intensification of LLT regimens compared to current practice alone over a 16-week period after an Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) event * To estimate in the study cohort the potential benefits of guideline-based LLT intensification via simulation-based methods using estimates of baseline risk: LLT utilisation, additional LDL-C reductions and LDL-C goal achievement, on simulated risk of CV events through modelling. Participants will give consent to randomised clinical sites to collect their data. The clinical sites will either be randomised to standard of care or the availability of and access to the DSS. Researchers will compare patients from DSS and Non-DSS sites to see if the availability of the DSS results in implementation of more intensive lipid lowering regimens, resulting in the achievement of lower LDL-C values as well as the proportion of patients who reach target LDL-C levels (\<1.4 mmol/L (\<55 mg/dL) by Week 16.
