The EMedHome Question of the Day is:

What factors predispose individuals to STEMI rather than UA or NSTEMI?

Scroll Down for the Answer

























The Answer is:

Factors predisposing to STEMI rather than UA/NSTEMI are currently unknown; patients with STEMI tend to be younger, with a higher propensity of single-vessel CAD, and with less advanced heart disease than UA/NSTEMI patients (Am J EM, 2/08, pg. 212).
