Diagnosis and Management of an Inferior ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Simulation Scenario

Immediate diagnosis and management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), a condition resulting from the complete occlusion of a coronary artery, is critical to achieving optimal patient outcomes. This report outlines an acute inferior STEMI simulation which can be used for teaching differen...

description Immediate diagnosis and management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), a condition resulting from the complete occlusion of a coronary artery, is critical to achieving optimal patient outcomes. This report outlines an acute inferior STEMI simulation which can be used for teaching different levels of learner including novice, intermediate and advanced. It focuses on the presentation, diagnosis, and management of inferior myocardial infarctions. Additionally, it incorporates the advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) protocol for more advanced learners and uses the CanMEDS collaborator/communicator role as an adjunct objective for all learners.
