This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I21.19 - other international versions of ICD-10 I21.19 may differ. Applicable To Acute transmural myocardial infarction of inferior wall
An inferior wall MI — also known as IWMI, or inferior MI, or inferior ST segment elevation MI, or inferior STEMI — occurs when inferior myocardial tissue supplied by the right coronary artery, or RCA, is injured due to thrombosis of that vessel.
410.21 - Acute myocardial infarction of inferolateral wall, initial episode of care.
Inferior wall myocardial infarction (MI) occurs from a coronary artery occlusion with resultant decreased perfusion to that region of the myocardium. Unless there is timely treatment, this results in myocardial ischemia followed by infarction.
Acute anterior wall ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) classically presents with ST-segment elevations in one or more precordial leads. Usually, ST-elevation in lead V1 signifies infarction of the interventricular septum. ST-elevation in leads V2–V4 indicates infarction of the anterior (or anteroapical) wall.
1 for ST elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction of inferior wall is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
I21. 1 - ST elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction of inferior wall | ICD-10-CM.
The ECG findings of an inferior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction include:ST segment elevation in the inferior leads (II, III, and aVF) of at least 1 mm.Reciprocal ST segment depression in the lateral and/or high lateral leads (I, aVL, V5 and V6).
The inferior tip of the heart, the apex, lies just to the left of the sternum between the junction of the fourth and fifth ribs near their articulation with the costal cartilages.
Posterior wall myocardial infarction occurs when circulation becomes disrupted to the posterior heart. It commonly cooccurs with inferior or inferolateral MI, but when in isolation, posterior myocardial infarction represents a diagnostic challenge.
0 for ST elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction of anterior wall is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
An acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is an event in which transmural myocardial ischemia results in myocardial injury or necrosis. [1] The current 2018 clinical definition of myocardial infarction (MI) requires the confirmation of the myocardial ischemic injury with abnormal cardiac biomarkers.
The term “anteroseptal” refers to a location of the heart in front of the septum — the wall of tissue that separates the left and right sides of the heart.
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code I51.89 and a single ICD9 code, 429.89 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
