  1. 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. The Macstrak Project

  3. ER Case Study KFD is a 62 year old (9/9/43) woman with no significant past medical history. The Macstrak Project

  4. ER Case Study KFD is a 62 year old (9/9/43) woman with no significant past medical history. On 08/2/06: 10:30 KFD experiences chest pain while watching television. The Macstrak Project

  5. ER Case Study 13:30 Her husband drives her to the ER where she reports chest pain associated with nausea and diaphoresis. She is triaged at level II. 13:35 Nursing assessment reveals persistent chest pain and her vital signs are as follows: BP is 145/80, HR is 96 and chest is clear. The Macstrak Project

  6. ER Case Study 13:43 Her first and diagnostic ECG is as follows: ST in leads II, III, a VF ST in leads V1-4 ASA and NTG S/L are given. 13:50 ER MD assesses KFD and finds she has no contraindications to reperfusion therapy. The decision is made to treat KFD (weight 59 kg) with TNK. 14:00 30 mg of TNK over 5 seonds is given. KFD also receives UF heparin IV and metoprolol IV. 15:00 The pain persists and a repeat ECG shows persistent ST segment elevation. The Macstrak Project

  7. ER Case Study 15:15 KFD is transferred from your hospital to a tertiary centre for a PCI. 18:00 The clerk calls the tertiary centre to check on KFD. She discovers KFD arrived at the cath lab at 16:00 and angiography confirmed a persistent occlusion of the RCA. She had a successful angioplasty with her first inflation at 16:35. This gave her time to rescue PCI of 155 minutes. The Macstrak Project
