What is the treatment of acute mi?

Urgent intervention: "time is muscle" is the mantra. Given a true mi, getting to a facility that can diagnose & manage an acute mi is critical. Initial anti platelet/anticoagulant therapy, followed by restoring blood flow by angioplasty ± stent placement, & then compliance with a "cardiac cocktail" of anti-platelet, lipid lowering, beta-blocker, & possibly ace inhibitor rx . Then risk factor control & no smoking!

See below: Aspirin, o2, nitroglycerin, morphine, beta blockers, later ace inhibitors, antilipemics.And other supportive measures.

Stents: Stents in the acute sense of mi, but the meds mentioned are important. Also Effient and statin and Aspirin are inportant.

Stents: Besides meds need a stent. Also Plavix (clopidogrel) or prasugrel.
