NSTEMI Case Studies

To determine if the patient’s chest pain is related to injury, you would look for ST-segment elevation. Myocardial injury represents a worsening stage of ischemia. If ST-segment elevation is greater than or equal to 1mm above the isoelectric line, it is significant and treatment needs to be prompt and effective to try to restore oxygen to the myocardium, and to avoid or limit infarction.
