Abstract
This article describes an algorithm for the rapid clinical assessment and evidence-based managemant of patients presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) with chest pain. While broadly applicable, it is specifically designed for use in an ED-based chest pain unit, and incorporates time-sensitive pathways for patients with acute coronary syndromes as well as observation protocols for patients in which the etiology of chest pain is less clear.
