In the acf_form() call you need to provide the post ID of the post that needs to be edited.

if (some condition) {
  // the if needs to detect if a post is being edited
  // if it is then set $post_id to the post to be edited
  $post_id = $post=>ID; // something like this
} else {
  // otherwise this is a new post
  $post_id = 'new_post';
}

acf_form(array(
     'post_id'		=> $post_id,
     'field_groups'	=> array( 19250 ),
     'post_title'	=> false,
     'updated_message' => __("Post updated", 'acf'),
     'submit_value'	=> 'Send',
     'return' => ''
  ));
