In this study, nurses had inadequate knowledge and practice regarding the care of Acute Coronary Syndrome. Nurses' educational level, presence of clinical practice guidelines, and getting training were determinant factors associated with good knowledge and practice. Therefore, organizational and nursing educational support are needed to improve this gap by providing short- and long-term training, and updated evidence-based clinical practice guidelines should be available for all acute care nurses.
