Acute Coronary Syndrome: From Stable Plaque to STEMI | ACS Series Part 1

Welcome to Izzy Medicine. In this high-yield emergency medicine lecture, educator Isabella Sherbatova explains the pathophysiology of Acute Coronary Syndrome, from stable plaque to unstable rupture, clot formation, and the spectrum of unstable angina, NSTEMI, and STEMI.

You’ll learn how cholesterol plaques form inside coronary arteries, why some remain stable while others become vulnerable, and what triggers a sudden rupture that turns a chronic problem into a life-threatening emergency.

By the end, you will understand how to connect risk factors, physiology, and the patient in front of you — the foundation before moving into ECGs, troponins, and acute management in Parts 2 and 3.

Check out the full ACS Series here on Izzy Medicine, and don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share your questions in the comments.

Bonus: Some viewers even say they use these lectures as unintentional ASMR.
