We cover the clinical policy from the American College of Emergency Physicians -\\xa0Clinical Policy: Critical Issues in the Evaluation and Management of Emergency Department Patients With Suspected Non\\u2013ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes
In adult patients without evidence of ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome, can initial risk stratification be used to predict a low rate of 30-day major adverse cardiac events?
In adult patients with suspected acute non\\u2013ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes, can troponin testing within 3 hours of emergency department presentation be used to predict a low rate of 30-day major adverse cardiac events?
In adult patients with suspected acute non\\u2013ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes\\xa0in whom acute myocardial infarction has been excluded, does further diagnostic testing (eg, provocative, stress test, computed tomography [CT] angiography) for acute coronary syndrome prior to discharge reduce 30-day major adverse cardiac events?
Should adult patients with acute\\xa0non\\u2013ST-elevation myocardial infarction receive immediate antiplatelet therapy in addition to aspirin to reduce 30-day major adverse cardiac events?
Thanks for listening!
