How does your ED treat chest pain?

I am wondering how your ED treats chest pain. We get EKG in 15 mins, start IV give IV nitroglycerin, Zofran,Ativan, Dilaudid.5, Asa, and Plavix and chest X-ray and cardiac panel. What are your guys orders like?

if I tell the school I graduated from it will tell what city I work in and everything it may be odd but its none of nobodies business where I graduated.

When did they start offering an ENP?

Specializes in RN.

Hep Lock, EKG, Labs, Monitor, ASA, Nitro SL, Chest XRAY,...the morphine might follow (depending on results of Nitro, and which Provider is on)

We aren't allowed to give Zofran. It's contraindicated unless expressly ordered and documented by provider.
