Pt denies fever, diaphoresis, rash, palpitations, dyspnea, orthopnea, PND, cough, sputum, hemoptysis, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, dysphagia, syncope, lower extremity pain.

Differential: Heart/ vascular: Angina MI Acute pericarditis Aortic dissection Lungs: Pneumonia PE Pneumothorax. GI: GERD Peptic ulcer disease Pancreatitis Diffuse esophageal spasm. Other: Costochondritis Rib fracture Anxiety Herpes zoster Skin lacerations Muscle strain.

Objective:
vitals = all normal
Pt in distress - flushed face, gripping chest with hand.
No Anemia clinically; No Cyanosis; No Lymphadenopathy; No edema
ENT: Ears normal,, Nose & Mouth assessment normal
CVS: S1=S2, No S3/4, RRR, no murmurs heard
Resp: No distress, GAEB , widespread coarse crackles throughout both lungs, no wheezes
DERM: No rash, Normal exam
MSK: Lt upper pectoralis major muscle area is tender to deep touch

Initial ECG normal
2nd ECG- ST suppression in inferior leads.
3rd ECG- continuous ST depression inferior leads with inverted T vaves
Initial troponin measurment- 50-100 positive
Rest of initial bloodwork = all normal

Assessment:
call out ER visit - Non-STEMI (consider Unstable angina over weekend, inferior ischemia today).

CC- 19:00 - 20:15 pm

Critical care - first 30 min 7:00 - 7:30 pm - 5 min attendance to other pot from 7:20-7:25 pm
- continuous ECG monitoring
- STEMI protocol

Critical care - second 30 min 7:30 - 8:00
- continuous ECG monitoring
- STEMI protocol

Critical care - third 30 min 8:00 - 8:25 - medical student monitored and I reviewed ECG's and referred pt
- continuous ECG monitoring
- STEMI protocol

Crisis intervension 20 min - discussion with pt and wife - explained condition in detail - discussed treatment now and possible treatment options later, including probable referral to vancouver for angiogram - pt settled after initial anxiety and stress reaction

Urgent specialist consult with Internist at UNHBC on call, Dr - he referred to ER physician and agreed with treatment approach

Urgent ER physician consult at , Dr = he accepted unconditionally - agreed with treatment, not to give TNK at this time

Urgent tel consult with PTN - Dr , RN's and - accepted stat transfer - nurse to accompany pt with transfer

Plan:

1) NSTEMI/UA protocol initiated
- 325 mg ASA stat po given in ER
- Nitro patch 0.4mg SC
- Metoprolol 25 mg PO STAT and q12hrs
- Clopidegrel 300mg PO STAT
- Atorvastatin 80 mg PO STAT
- Enocaparin 72mg SC STAT, then qrn
- Morphine sulfate 2.5 mg IV q15min prn
- Saline lock in place
