Summary

The investigators will make a prospective study in which they will look at the economics and security of the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndrome.

The investigators want to do a randomized trial. One group will be treated as they have been treated at Ullevål University Hospital (UUS) in recent years, and the other group will be returned to their refering hospital the same day. The objective of this study will be to provide increased knowledge about whether the rapid discharge from the intervention center is associated with differences in costs or security.
