  1. Understanding differences between stemi and nstemi

    Lclark001 posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance
    Hello everyone!! I'm a nursing student and i'm having some difficulty with understanding the difference in stemi and nstemi with MI and ACS. So, let me see if I can explain what I know and make sure its right Acute Coronary Syndrome refers to any heart issue including MI and Unstable angina. MI is when a coronary artery gets clogged/blocked and stops a part of the heart from getting oxygen causing it to stop working and/or cell death Unstable Angina is chest pain that is caused by coronary blockage and is not relieved by resting. If a PT is having Angina and is hooked up to an ECG to determine if its nstemi or stemi. So... if the PT has nstemi the ST segment is obviously not elevated so its treated the same as unstable angina and... if its a stemi it's treated as a MI? I think i'm just getting confused!!!. I'm sorry if it's just a wall of text but I can't seem to get a grasp on it to save my life!! I've tried to "google" and read other books but NOTHING is helping me here.
