Objectives: The main objective of the study is to fnd the frequency of risk factors of coronary heart diseases in patients with acute coronary syndrome and its comparison in male and female. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Services Institute of medical sciences during June 2021 to June 2022. The data was collected with the permission of ethical committee of hospital. Results: The data was collected from 100 male and female patients. The mean age was 45.67±2.89 years for males and 49.89±5.67 years for females. The major risk factors for diseases is hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking and diabetes. According to data all the patients must contain one of these major risk factors and many of the patients had more than one risk factors. Conclusion: It is concluded that all the patients must have one of the major risk factors as a cause of diseases. Women with acute coronary syndrome, as compared to men, have more prevalence of diabetes and hypertension, and less prevalence of smoking.

Although health professionals frequently use both terms CAD and ACS interchangeably, as well as CHD, they are not the same [1]. ACS is a subcategory of CAD, whilst CHD results of CAD. On the other hand, CAD is characterized by atherosclerosis in coronary arteries and can be asymptomatic, whereas ACS almost always presents with a symptom, such as unstable angina, and is frequently associated with myocardial infarction (MI) regardless of the presence of CAD [2]. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a devastating disease precisely because an otherwise healthy person in the prime of life may die or become disabled without warning when the aficted individual is under the age of 40, the tragic consequences for family
