Abstract
A 67-year-old man (165 cm tall, weight 86 kg) was transferred to our institution following unstable angina and a diagnosis of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction. Comorbidities included type 2 diabetes (HbA1c 7%), hypertension, dyslipidemia, ex-smoker (30 pack-year history, quit 15 years ago) and newly diagnosed stable idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) for which the antifibrotic medication, nintedanib, was commenced 5 months prior. The patient had minimal respiratory symptoms (no cough, sputum, nor infective exacerbations) and was regularly playing golf before admission.
