Please explain why thrombolytic therapy is not indicated in cases of
unstable angina and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions
(nSTE-MI) despite the fact that both nSTE-MI and ST-elevated MI
(STEMI) are caused by a thrombus for which thrombolytic therapy is
highly indicated? Could it be true that, in the case of unstable angina and
nSTE-MI has a higher incidence of intracranial haemorrhage than in the
case of ST-segment elevation MI?
