Zusammenfassung
The document reviews the background, history, missions, governance, values, and principles related to ACC/AHA guideline development, as well as the format of guideline documents and optimization strategies.
Kernaussagen
The ACC/AHA guideline development process includes four phases: Pre-Production, Document Development, Review and Approval, and a newly added Phase 4 Post-Publication Surveillance Review and Guideline Revision.
The consensus threshold for writing committee approval of recommendations has been increased from >51% to >75%.
Guidelines will now use a Modular Recommendation Format (MRF) to organize content, structuring each module with a Class of Recommendation (COR), Level of Evidence (LOE), synopsis, recommendation-specific supportive text, and references.
The methodology integrates Shared Decision-Making (SDM) and Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs), standardizing how evidence from SDM and PROs translates into the COR/LOE framework.
Was ist neu in dieser Version
Revised Section 3.4.5 to change the recommendation consensus threshold from >51% to >75%. Added new Section 3.7 detailing Phase 4 Post-Publication Surveillance Review and Guideline Revision.

4.1.7 Shared Decision-Making in Patients With Acute Chest Pain
For patients with acute chest pain and suspected ACS who are deemed intermediate risk by a CDP, shared decision-making between the clinician and patient regarding the need for admission, for observation, discharge, or further evaluation in an outpatient setting is recommended for improving patient understanding and reducing low-value testing.
