Also, bringing you a 56-year-old male from St. Anthony's and summit. Sounds like around 4 p.m. this evening start having some chest tightness, shortness of breath, as well as bilateral upper extremity weakness. Went to the ER. Initial 12-lead showed isolated maybe 1 to 2 millimeter elevation, lead 3 with T-wave inversion. There's no pattern for any other pattern than I'm recognizing. Troponins were 2,300 at 2,200, and 3,300 at 2,300. We've gotten two EKG findings, which is showing maybe one millimeter of elevation, lead three, just isolated to that. A gentleman has no complaints at this time. We didn't give Plavix, aspirin, heparin, and nitroglycerin, as well as the heparin drip. Final signs have all been stable. It sounds like this was activated at a STEMI from Summit. I'm not really seeing any other criteria that we're not seeing any criteria that indicates us to be a STEMI activation. I'm trying to call the ER, sounds like they're swamped and don't want to take reports. I just kind of wanted to clarify to you guys if we are coming to the CATLAB with no STEMI criteria or if we're going to divert to the ER. So they will assess when you guys get there. So go ahead and take it into the CAT lab. Sounds good, thank you.
