Priorities in Patient Presenting to EmergencyDepartment with Chest Pain

Abstract

In addition to rapid clinical evaluation, preferential and right electrocardiographic assessment and also insistent follow up of the complaint of chest pain that constitute a significant percentage of emergency department admission, provides a reduction in mortality and morbidity in the patients admitted to emergency department with chest pain. Unnecessary and time-consuming diagnostic tests should be avoided in this patient population, especially before the electrocardiographic evaluation.
