Abstract: | We evaluated the treatment pattern of patients with chronic kidney disease presenting with acute coronary syndromes. In a retrospective chart review of 400 patients with and without kidney disease presenting with angina pectoris we found that patients with chronic kidney disease have longer hospital stays, receive fewer diagnostic angiographies, and have a delay in therapy. |
