Treatment of NSTEMI (Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction) [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Emergency and Hospital Medicine Reports, 2013
Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is a recognized diagnostic entity that has an unacceptable mortality rate when it goes unrecognized. Following diagnosis, initial treatment with analgesics, nitrates and anti-platelet agents forms the initial approach. New anti-platelet agents such as ticagrelor and prasugrel need to be clearly understood.
