IntroductionA 58-year-old man comes to the Yale Emergency Department complaining of substernal chest discomfort. He states that the pain occurs early in the morning when he walks outside to get the newspaper, and diminishes when he rests for about 5-10 minutes. He describes it as a dull ache in his midsternal area that doesn't radiate anywhere but causes him to feel like he can't catch his breath.  |
