1 The Macstrak Project ER Case Studies The following is a series of case studies to review different patient types and how they are captured on the form. The information is provided in sequence to reflect the natural progression of a patient’s care. As the case is presented, mark off the required information in the appropriate fields on your Macstrak form. At the end of each case study, the form will be reviewed with the correct answers supplied. If you have any questions, please refer to your Macstrak manual or contact us at the Macstrak Project Office.

3 The Macstrak Project ER Case Study AB is a 48 year old (17/5/57) businessman.

4 The Macstrak Project ER Case Study AB is a 48 year old (17/5/57) businessman. On 2/2/06: 06:30AB awakens with crushing retrosternal chest pain radiating to his left arm.

5 The Macstrak Project ER Case Study 08:30AB’s wife drives him to the ER as he continues to have chest pain. He is triaged as a level II and placed in the cardiac room. 08:35Nursing assessment reveals persistent, crushing midsternal chest pain lasting 2 hours. AB has no previous cardiac history. On examination, his BP is 140/70, HR is 72 and his chest is clear. He remains in mild distress with persistent chest pain.

6 The Macstrak Project ER Case Study 08:37An IV is started and morphine is given. His first and diagnostic ECG is as follows: ST in leads II, III, a VF ST in leads V 1-4 and I, aVL 15 lead ECG:V 4 R shows ST V 7-9 shows ST Nitro 0.3 mg S/L and ASA are given.

7 The Macstrak Project ER Case Study 08:45AB is assessed by the ER MD and thrombolysis is ordered. 08:55Heparin IV (LMW) is started. Cardiac bloodwork is drawn including troponin and CK levels. 09:0040 mg TNK over 5 seconds. 09:10IV metoprolol is given. The ER MD makes arrangements to have AB admitted to the CCU.

8 The Macstrak Project ER Case Study 10:30Chest pain gradually subsiding. A repeat ECG shows the ST segments resolving. Troponin level is positive and CK is 403. 11:15Transferred to CCU, in stable condition, diagnosed with having experienced and acute inferior MI.
