Abstract

Background: Acute coronary syndrome was one of the most common cause for mortality and morbidity all over the world. Epicardial arterial atheroscleorosis was the main risk factor for coronary heart disease. Dyslipedemia is one of the most important risk factor for atherosclerosis and its consequences.

Aims and Objectives: To study lipid profile pattern in acute coronary syndrome patients

Materials and Methods: It was a retrospective study conducted between January 2017 to December 2017 at Govt Hospital MIMS Mandya. As per inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria cases are included and excluded, and a prestructured proforma was used, and data were entered. A standard serum lipid profile measures the concentration of total and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol as well as the triglycerides.

Results: Out of 62 patients 26 were females (41.9%) 36 were males (58.1%). Most common age group was 50 to 60 years. Out of 62 patients 32(51,6) were admitted with STEMI ,20 were (32.3%) admitted with NSTEMI. Average total Cholesterol was 195.5 mg/dl, LDL-C was 119.5 mg/dl, HDL-C was 38.4 mg/dl and TG was 179.1 mg/dl respectively.

Conclusion: Increased LDL-C and decreased HDL-C was one of the important lipid abnormality causing CHD. It is important to advice regarding good dietary habits and exercise to prevent such events at community level.

Keywords: STEMI, NSTEMI, UA, LDL-C, HDL-C.
