Absence of ST-segment elevation in NSTEMI is understood to involve less than full thickness (partial thickness) damage of heart muscle. Therefore, NSTEMI is less severe type of heart attack compared to STEMI (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) in which full thickness damage of heart muscle develops.

The premise of the NST is that a well-oxygenated, non-acidemic fetus will spontaneously have temporary increases in the fetal heart rate (FHR). Vibroacoustic stimulation can wake the fetus, and is sometimes used to speed up the test or to facilitate further evaluation of a nonreactive nonstress test.

Nonstress Test. Mothers and babies who need special medical care and extra attention may need a nonstress test (NST). An NST is a simple, painless procedure. We will be monitoring your baby’s heartbeat, which is a way of evaluating your unborn baby. We will listen to and record the baby’s heartbeat while the baby is resting and while the baby is moving.
