Lipid Profile of Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome in Sanjiwani Regional General Hospital

Backgrounds: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is one of main cardovascular diseases. It is recommended that the lipid profile should be checked in all patients hospitalized due to ACS. An accurate knowledge of baseline lipid levels may affect the initiation of lipid-lowering therapy. Objective: This study aimed to evaluated blood lipid profile in patients with ACS that will give us knowledge about the baseline levels of lipid profile. Methods: Design of this research is a descriptive cross-sectional study. The subjects are hospitalized patients with ACS were treated at Sanjiwani Regional General Hospital in 2019 until February 2021. Total samples are 94 and they were selected by total sampling. Data about age, gender, and lipid profile were collected from medical record. Received datas were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: The test results showed that among 94 ACS patients about 74.5% patients were male, 34% patients in the age range of 51-60 years, 78.7% patients with total cholesterol less than 200 mg/dl, 58.5% patients with optimal LDL cholesterol level (less than 100 mg/dl), 64.9% patients with low HDL holesterol level less than 40 mg/dl, and 83% patients with triglycerides level less than 150 mg/dl. Conclusion: Based on this results, it can be concluded that the most common ACS patients are male and in the age range of 51 ? 60 years. Most common ACS patients have total cholesterol less than 200 mg/dl, optimal LDL cholesterol (less than100 mg/dl), low HDL cholesterol (40 mg/dl), and triglycerides less than 150 mg/dl.
