JACC's June 10 guideline issue features a series of viewpoints on the ACS guidelines. In this video, author Kausik Ray, MD, FACC, discusses the 2025 ACC/AHA Acute Coronary Syndrome guidelines, focusing on lipid management. He highlights the shift from solely using statins to incorporating combination therapies, emphasizing the importance of simultaneous initiation of combination therapies with statins, ezetimibe, and PCSK9i early in specific high-risk groups rather than a sequential strategy. This could help align implementation of clinical practice more closely with available evidence and help narrow the well-established implementation gaps in the real-world care.
