Abstract

The effective treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and acute congestive heart failure (CHF) requires quick triage, accurate identification, and appropriate pharmacologic management. This article describes the initial assessment and management of adult patients with AMI and CHF, beginning with the first interaction of such patients with the emergency department staff.
