Anticipated length of stay : Myocardial Infarction - OR Troponin + acute coronary syndrome nights Stable angina/non-cardiac chest pain - 24 hours Summary of Guidelines for Use 1. This is a multiprofessional record and replaces all other documentation relating to this episode of care. 2.

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS TO THROMBOLYSIS NB. CONSIDER ALL contraindications as RELATIVE and discuss with senior doctor (A&E or Medicine) IMMEDIATELY Absolute contraindications Suspected Aortic Dissection or pericarditis Active Internal Bleeding Haemorrhagic CVA/SAH/ intracranial lesion Embolic CVA <3/12 Major Trauma / Head injury 3 weeks Major Surgery 14 days GI Bleed < 14 days Relative contraindications Internal organ biopsy/large artery puncture within last 2 weeks Known bleeding disorder Oral anti-coagulant therapy INR >2-3 Prolonged or Traumatic CPR Acute pancreatitis/active peptic ulcer Diabetic proliferative retinopathy Pregnancy or within 1 week post partum BP >180/110 IF NO CONTRAINDICATION EXISTS PROCEED TO THROMBOLYSIS IMMEDIATELY Obtain informed VERBAL consent Reason for NOT thrombolysing immediately: Time(s) senior doctor contacted: Name of senior doctor(s): Decision to thrombolyse: Time decision made: Notes: YES / NO CHOICE OF THROMBOLYTIC Give TENECTEPLASE as first choice (see over (page 5) for protocol) If perceived higher risk of stroke eg. : Advanced age Significant hypertension Consider Streptokinase and discuss with SpR or Consultant Thrombolytic Dose / Time Signed Given By Heparin Transfer to: Time left Department: 4

5 Protocol for administration of single bolus thrombolytic - Tenecteplase (TNK) STEP 1: Give intravenous unfractionated heparin bolus: Patient s body weight Heparin IV bolus dose < 67 kg (10st 7lbs) 4,000 IU bolus >67 kg (>10st 7lbs) 5,000 IU bolus Heparin should be administered as soon as possible after the diagnosis of AMI has been confirmed. STEP 2: Administer tenecteplase as intravenous bolus over approximately 10 seconds: Patients body weight category Dose and reconstituted volume Tenecteplase vial size < 60 kg (<9st 6lbs) 6,000 units (30mg) in 6 ml 8,000 unit pack 60 to 69 kg (9st 6lbs-10st 12lbs) 7,000 units (35mg) in 7 ml 8,000 unit pack 70 to 79 kg (11 st -12st 6lbs) 8,000 units (40mg) in 8 ml 8,000 unit pack 80 to 89 kg (12st 8lbs 14 st) 9,000 units (45mg) in 9 ml 10,000 unit pack > 90 kg (>14st 2lbs) 10,000 units (50mg) in 10 ml 10,000 unit pack NB. Tenecteplase is incompatible with glucose solutions. STEP 3: Continue weight adjusted intravenous unfractionated heparin: 1. The heparin infusion is prepared by utilising 20,000 IU in 20 ml. (PUMP HEP). The final concentration is 1000 IU heparin in 1mL. Patient s body weight Initial Heparin IV infusion rate < 67 kg (10st 7lbs) 800 IU per hour >67 kg (>10st 7lbs) 1000 IU per hour 2. Ensure infusion commenced within 30 minutes of Tenecteplase administration. 3. APTT monitoring essential to maintain a ratio of APTT ratio should be determined 6 hours after commencing heparin treatment, 6 hours after each dose adjustment and subsequently on a daily basis. 5. The results should be used to adjust the heparin dose according to the following table: References 1 European Heart Journal 2003; 24: ASSENT 3 Lancet 2001; 358: APTT ratio Heparin infusion rate STOP infusion for 1 hour then reduce by 0.6 ml/hour Reduce by 0.2 ml/hour Reduce by 0.1 ml/hour No change Increase by 0.4 ml/hour < 1.2 Increase by 0.8 ml/hour 5

6 Suspected NSTEMI/Acute coronary syndrome ECG & troponin on admission No ECG ST Normal ECG, Troponin on admission ECG ischaemic or raised Troponin on admission or 12 hours Suspected acute coronary syndrome Confirmed acute coronary syndrome ECG/ troponin at 12 hours: if normal consider discharge Stress test If any are abnormal Stable for 48 h with no high risk features REFER TO CARDIOLOGY (NSF) Admit CCU/cardiac ward ECG monitor aspirin/lmwh/beta blocker /consider clopidogrel 300mg PO loading 75 mg maintenance Level of risk* (Bruce) Low Intermediate high >3 mins + no ST 3 mins or ST 3 mins + ST Recurrent symptoms or ECG changes or other indication of high risk* (consider GP llb/llla blocker with Consultant Cardiologist approval) OR +/- Coronary angiography Cardiology OP review Revascularisation or medical treatment (as appropriate) Discharge * Level of risk determined after Cardiology review using: Tropomin status/ecg changes/timi score ± ETT results HIGH RISK FEATURES INCLUDE: a) Dynamic ST changes b) Raised Trop I c) Ongoing symptoms d) Pulmonary oedema and ischaemic ECG e) Post MI angina f) Diabetes 6
