Acute Coronary Syndrome - Emergency Medical Services | ACLS Certification Association

EMS is the second link in the STEMI Chain of Survival, and what happens in the field can change the entire trajectory of suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) / STEMI. In this lesson, we break down the key prehospital interventions EMS can perform before the patient arrives at the emergency department. In this video, you’ll review how EMS providers: ✅ Perform rapid assessment, initial stabilization, and transport to an appropriate facility ✅ Support airway, breathing, and circulation (ABCs) while continuously monitoring vital signs ✅ Obtain a 12-lead ECG early to aid rapid recognition and downstream treatment decisions ✅ Stay prepared to start CPR immediately and defibrillate quickly if cardiac arrest occurs We also cover common prehospital therapies often summarized as MONA: ▪️Oxygen when indicated, titrated to maintain SpO₂ at or above 94% ▪️Aspirin (commonly 160–325 mg) with attention to contraindications such as allergy or GI bleeding risk ▪️Nitroglycerin to improve perfusion and reduce chest discomfort, with key cautions (including hypotension risk and interaction concerns with erectile dysfunction medications) ▪️Morphine discussed for pain/anxiety relief and physiologic effects that can reduce cardiac workload Finally, we highlight why a strong EMS-to-ED handoff is critical: clear reporting of the ECG findings, clinical status, and all interventions provided helps the ED team act faster during the most time-sensitive window.
