Key Points An early invasive strategy for NSTEMI resulted in lower MACE and recurrent ischemia compared with a delayed strategy. The significant risk of NSTEMI is affirmed, which warrants earlier and more directed invasive treatment. Future investigations need to confirm these findings in a randomized trial in high‐risk patients.
