3 for ST elevation (STEMI) myocardial infarction of unspecified site 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.
If there is a pattern known as ST-elevation on the EKG, this is called a STEMI, short for ST elevation myocardial infarction. If there is elevation of the blood markers suggesting heart damage, but no ST elevation seen on the EKG tracing, this is known as a NSTEMI.
ST-segment elevation usually indicates a total blockage of the involved coronary artery and that the heart muscle is currently dying. Non-STEMI heart attacks usually involve an artery with partial blockage, which usually does not cause as much heart muscle damage.
STEMI is only diagnosed when elevated troponin levels have been confirmed; until then, the condition is classified as STE-ACS. However, in clinical practice, STE-ACS and STEMI are equivalent because virtually all patients with chest pain and ST elevations on ECG will have elevated troponin levels.
ST elevation refers to a finding on an electrocardiogram wherein the trace in the ST segment is abnormally high above the baseline.
STEMI results from complete and prolonged occlusion of an epicardial coronary blood vessel and is defined based on ECG criteria..NSTEMI usually results from severe coronary artery narrowing, transient occlusion, or microembolization of thrombus and/or atheromatous material.
NSTEMI is caused by a block in a minor artery or a partial obstruction in a major artery. STEMI occurs when a ruptured plaque blocks a major artery completely.
Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is a type of involving partial blockage of one of the coronary arteries, causing reduced flow of oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle.
The most important cause of ST segment elevation is acute Ischemia. Other causes are [4][6]: Early repolarization. Acute pericarditis: ST elevation in all leads except aVR.
Acute anterolateral MI. Acute anterolateral MI is recongnized by ST segment elevation in leads I, aVL and the precordial leads overlying the anterior and lateral surfaces of the heart (V3 - V6). Generally speaking, the more significant the ST elevation , the more severe the infarction.
According to the theory of the ischemie injury current there is a noticeable ST deviation in ECG of ischemie patient. ST depression has major role in detecting of ischemia. ST elevation is associated to special cases of ischemia or situation after myocardial infarction.
