Abstract

During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, strained acute care resources, the potential for rapid clinical decompensation, and concerns about staff safety has prompted a conservative management approach for acute coronary syndrome patients. We present our experience of COVID-19 patients at Elmhurst Hospital Center presenting with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction and compared outcomes of invasive vs conservative treatment strategies.
