This patient presents with chest pain, with symptoms suggestive of noncardiac chest pain. History without high risk features (e.g., not substernal, no exertional component, not relieved with rest, *** ).
Minimal CAD risk factors (including age), recent negative stress test (<2 years).*** Exam without evidence of volume overload. EKG without signs of active ischemia. HEART score: ***. Given the timing of pain to ER presentation, plan to send single troponin // delta troponin to evaluate for NSTEMI.*** Presentation not consistent with acute PE (Wells low risk *** // PERC negative***), pneumothorax, thoracic arotic dissection, cardiac effusion or tamponade.
Plan: labs, troponin***, EKG, CXR, ASA***, pain control, serial reassessment
