Abstract:
This guidelines summarize and evaluate all available evidence-at the time of the writing process-on a particular issue , with the aim of assisting physicians in selecting the best management strategies for an individual pa-tient with given condition , taking into account the impact on outcome , as well as the risk-benefit ratio of particular diagnostic or therapeutic means. Guidelines and recommendations should help physicians to make decisions in their daily practice. However , the final decisions concerning an individual patient must be made by the responsible physi-cian(s). A great number of guidelines have been issued in recent years by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) , as well as by other societies and organizations. ESC guidelines represent the official position of the ESC on a given topic and are regularly updated.
