title: The evolution of management of acute coronary syndromes (unstable angina and non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction): Part l.
abstract: As I advanced through medical school at Johns Hopkins, and throughout my subsequent training, I was constantly reminded of the contributions made to medicine by our predecessors. Many of whom were at Johns Hopkins, but many were not. As I continue active involvement in the education of medical students and physicians, it seems to me we have not done a good job of relating the history of how the modern management of patients with cardiovascular disease developed to our students, house staff, and fellows.
