COVID-19 rapid guideline: acute myocardial injury-/-National Institute for Health and Care Excellence: Clinical Guidelines 2020[Apr]; ä (ä): ä PMID33439590show ga
The purpose of this guideline is to help healthcare professionals who are not cardiology specialists identify and treat acute myocardial injury and its cardiac complications in adults with known or suspected COVID-19 but without known pre-existing cardiovascular disease. This guideline focuses on what you need to stop or start doing during the pandemic. Follow the usual professional guidelines, standards and laws (including those on equalities, safeguarding, communication and mental capacity), as described in making decisions using NICE guidelines. This guideline is for: health and care practitioners; health and care staff involved in planning and delivering services; commissioners. The guideline covers care in a hospital setting. The recommendations are specifically for acute myocardial injury associated with COVID-19 and should be used alongside good clinical practice. The recommendations bring together: evidence from published literature on COVID-19 with acute myocardial injury; existing national and international guidance and policies; advice from specialists working in the NHS from across the UK. These include people with expertise and experience of treating patients with acute myocardial injury during the current COVID-19 pandemic. We developed this guideline using the interim process and methods for developing rapid guidelines on COVID-19 in response to the rapidly evolving situation. We will review and update the recommendations as the knowledge base develops using the interim process and methods for guidelines developed in response to health and social care emergencies.
