A patient presents to the emergency department with complaints of chest pain. The 12-lead EKG reveals ST segment elevation in leads I and aVL. The initial BP is 112/69 and decreases to a systolic of 60 following a dose of nitroglycerin 0.4 mg SL. The next most appropriate intervention is to: A. complete a fibrinolytic check sheet B. initate a dopamine drip for BP control C. obtain a right-sided 12-lead EKG D. administer a 0.9% NS bolus IV correct answersD. administer a 0.9% NS bolus IV ...

FoEM CBR22- Cardiology Exam What underlying pathologic process distinguishes myocardial infarction from angina/unstable angina? Atherosclerotic plaque rupture → exposed endothelium → clot attaches → reduced blood flow; if cell death occurs (usually due to complete vascular obstruction) then positive trop and MI; if no cell death occurs then negative trop and angina/unstable angina. What is the difference between transmural and nontransmural infarction? Transmural: usually STEMI, la...
