Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the most important leading causes of death in the whole world. Among the different clinical presentations of Coronary heart disease (CHD), acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is the most important and life threatening condition. In spite of their obvious effect, antithrombotic therapies for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) significantly increase bleeding. Hence, it is important to predict the bleeding risk in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients in order to modify their treatment aiming to reduce their bleeding events and improve their outcome. "CRUSADE Risk Score for ACS: Cardiology Calculator" apps will help to stratify bleeding risk in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with CRUSADE score.

CRUSADE Risk Score for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a scoring system used to stratify the risk of bleeding in patients with NSTE-ACS (Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome) in relation to the use of anti-thrombotics. CRUSADE bleeding score was developed and validated in a large community-treated NSTEMI patients. Clinical trials involving almost 48.000 patients with NSTEMI have demonstrated that major bleeding is associated with a 5-fold increase in 30-day mortality. This makes bleeding-risk stratification is a routine part in NSTE-ACS patients investigation. Download "CRUSADE Risk Score for ACS: Cardiology Calculator" app now!
