Answer

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) encompasses a spectrum of conditions defined by an acute decrease in coronary blood flow leading to myocardial ischemia. This spectrum typically includes ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and unstable angina. Stable coronary artery disease, coronary vasospasm only, or chronic heart failure do not fully capture the broad acute spectrum represented by ACS.
