The Chest Pain and STEMI Center in the Emergency Departments of Long Beach Memorial Medical Center and Saddleback Memorial Medical Center - Laguna Hills treat individuals that may be experiencing a heart attack.

ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI)

An ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is a form of heart attack. It is important that those who experience a STEMI be treated within 90 minutes of the first onset of symptoms. Our emergency departments at Long Beach Memorial Medical Center and Saddleback Memorial Medical Center - Laguna Hills are one of only a few designated cardiac receiving centers with emergency treatment times that beat the national average.

The STEMI receiving team works in conjunction with the MemorialCare Heart and Vascular Institute to provide the best cardiac care available.
