In the primary analysis, 22 473 participants were deemed eligible to receive the 11 possible guideline care processes based on GRACE category and other criteria (Receipt of guideline recommended care processesData are number of eligible processes received divided by number of patients eligible to receive each process (%).ACEi=angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor; ARB=angiotensin receptor blocker; GRS=Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events risk score.Cluster randomisation to GRS did not significantly increase the rate of uptake of guideline recommended care processes compared with standard care (77.3% for GRS Forest plot showing effect of GRS on individual processes of care.
