Heart attacks aren’t always straightforward, and not every elevated troponin means a patient is having one.
In this episode of CMEssentials, Dr. Danielle Verghese is joined by Dr. Marc Cohen to clarify how clinicians can approach NSTEMI and other forms of myocardial infarction with confidence.
They discuss:
How to distinguish between Type 1 and Type 2 NSTEMI
What high-sensitivity troponin trends really indicate
Why understanding myocardial infarction pathophysiology matters in hospital medicine
How to use clinical context—not just lab results—to identify or rule out a heart attack
The role of EKGs, echocardiograms, and bedside assessments in real-time decision making
Whether NSTEMI is front and center in a patient's presentation or just trailing behind other diagnoses, this episode offers practical guidance you can use on every shift.
