Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG)

Nearly 30 years since the publication of the first Malaysian Consensus on management of hyperlipidaemia, I am proud to announce the publication of the 6th Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) on the management of dyslipidemia. Since the 5th CPG, published in 2017, there has been much development in both diagnosis and treatments of dyslipidemia. This CPG is timely, as Malaysia has seen a rise in the prevalence of hypercholesterolemia in adults - a rise of 31.5% in 2011 to 38.1% in 2019.

Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome (NSTE-ACS) accounted for 55.4% of all Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) reported from the National Cardiovascular Disease Database (NCVD) - ACS Registry between 2016 and 2017. NSTE-ACS including the non-ST elevation myocardial infarction and unstable angina is the dominant clinical manifestation of ACS in Malaysia hence ensuring the standardised and current clinical management for our clinicians is paramount for the safety of our patients.

The 1st Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) on ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) was published in 2001 with a 2nd and 3rd update in 2007 and 2014 respectively. Rapid developments have taken place, especially in the area of pre-hospital care. This 4th edition was developed to provide a clear and concise approach based on current evidence with the focus being on efforts to reduce the time from first medical contact, improve pre-hospital care as well support the application of guideline-directed therapies.

Since the last CPG in 2014 the treatment modalities for the management of HF has expanded extensively. There have been many significant developments in the use of drugs and devices. These guideline-changing data have been incorporated into this CPG, taking into account our local health resources.
