AB  - Emergency department (ED) management of patients who present with suspected 
      unstable angina (UA) and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is 
      especially challenging. Therapies that demonstrate benefit in patients who 
      experience proven disease may not be indicated in patients who present with 
      suspected disease. The emergency practitioner must have a clear understanding of 
      the benefit and harm of each therapy, allowing formulation of a simple approach 
      to treatment selection based on disease presentation. This article reviews 
      current literature and discusses the treatment recommendations from the American 
      College of Cardiology (ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA) for patients who 
      experience UA and ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
