ACC / AHA Guidelines for Diabetes Mellitus[1]
"1. Medical treatment in the acute phase of UA/NSTEMI and decisions on whether to perform stress testing, angiography, and revascularization should be similar in patients with and without diabetes mellitus.55,72,81,147 (Level A)" |
"1. For patients with UA/NSTEMI and multivessel disease, CABG with use of the internal mammary arteries can be beneficial over PCI in patients being treated for diabetes mellitus.148 (Level B)" |
"2. PCI is reasonable for UA/NSTEMI patients with diabetes mellitus with single-vessel disease and inducible ischemia.55 (Level B)" |
"3. It is reasonable to use an insulin-based regimen to achieve and maintain glucose levels less than 180 mg/dL while avoiding hypoglycemia* for hospitalized patients with UA/NSTEMI with either a complicated or uncomplicated course.149–152 (Level B)" |
