Pre-hospital admission of heparin in patients with suspected non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome
In this study, pre-hospital heparin administration was not associated with improved clinical outcome in patients with suspected NSTE-ACS. These findings question pre-hospital heparin therapy in this patient population and might potentially warrant a more restricted utilization pending in-hospital risk assessment.
