EM/IM/CC - My Achy Breaky HEART
Shock trauma Auditorium
• 1-2% of ED patients discharged from the ED with chest pain will have a major adverse cardiac event within 30 days. • 85% of patients admitted to “rule-out” ACS will have negative hospital workups, this comes at tremendous financial cost. It is also important to recall that hospital admissions are not benign. • CKD, chronic cocaine use, HIV, SLE, RA, and chronic alcoholism are all less obvious risk factors for CAD and should be accounted for when calculating the HEART score. • Coronary CTA is gaining ground due to its sensitivity in looking for CAD; however, it can lead to over-diagnosis of clinically significant CAD.
