Abstract
CHEST PAIN is a frequent cause for admission to the emergency department (ED). It can be a sign of various conditions, from a minor disorder to a life-threatening disease such as acute myocardial infarction (AMI)( Calder et al, 2002) It is crucial for the physician to diagnose acute coronary syndrome correctly for the patient admitted to the ED with chest pain. (Patients with chest pain comprise 5 – 20% of all ED presentations ( Esses D et al,2001and Jernberg T et al, 2002) Rapid evaluation with good history taking from the patient enables us to determine simple condition from serious one. Assessment includes careful history taking, physical examination and 12-lead electrocardiogram.
