  5. ER Case Study 07:50 EMS arrives at ENCs home. 08:05 An ECG is done enroute to the hospital is as follows: ST in leads II, III, aVF ASA is given. The Macstrak Project

  6. ER Case Study 08:25 ENC arrives at the hospital and is triaged at level II. 08:30 RN assessment reveals her vital signs are as follows BP 130/70, HR 74 and chest is clear. ENC continues to have chest pain which she rates at 8/10. The Macstrak Project

  7. ER Case Study 08:40 ER MD assesses ENC and finds no contraindications to thrombolytic therapy. The decision is made to treat ENC (weight 62 kg) with TNK. 08:50 35 mg of TNK over 5 seconds is given. ENC also receives UF heparin IV, metoprolol IV and clopidogrel while in the ER. 09:00 The ER MD makes arrangements to have ENC admitted to the CCU. 09:10 The pain is resolving and the ST segments are normalising.
