The nurse is teaching a patient about acute coronary syndrome. What should the nurse teach that describes the progression of events in this disorder?
◦ Sudden plaque buildup in a narrow vessel immediately leads to an acute myocardial infarction when stable angina is present in ACS.
◦ When complete platelet occlusion occurs in a vessel, the ECG changes include nonspecific ST elevation without necrosis occurring in ACS.
◦ The growth of platelet-rich thrombi in the smaller vessels creates a blockage and is the cause for unstable angina symptoms in ACS.
◦ A thin fibrin layer stabilizes the ruptured plaque and prevents the occlusion of coronary vessels when stable angina is present in ACS.
