Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a multi-centre UK study designed to evaluate if an educational intervention programme delivered to health care professionals can improve the use of evidence based treatments in the management of patients admitted to hospital with non-ST elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome. A total of 38 centres participated, half received the educational intervention. Patients were followed to hospital discharge. Patients were followed up at 6 months. Longer term follow up through the Office Of National Statistics will be performed.
