A myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when blood flow decreases or stops in one of the coronary arteries of the heart, causing infarction (tissue death) to the heart muscle.
Learn about the pathophysiology, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of acute MI, which can be classified into 5 types based on etiology and circumstances. Subendocardial infarction is a type of nontransmural infarction that involves the inner one third of myocardium and causes ST-T abnormalities on ECG.
Learn how myocardial ischemia occurs when there is insufficient oxygen supply to the heart, and how it can lead to infarction if not restored. Find out how to interpret ECG changes in different settings of ischemia, such as subendocardial ischemia during exercise.
5 maj 2021 · Myocardial ischemia is reduced blood flow to the heart muscle due to blocked arteries. It can cause chest pain, heart attack, arrhythmia or heart failure. Learn about the causes, risk factors, diagnosis and prevention of myocardial ischemia.
Downsloping ST segments depressed greater than 1 mm (arrow). These changes were dynamic over time. The patient sustained a nontransmural myocardial infarction.
16 kwi 2024 · Learn how to diagnose and treat different types of MI based on EKG findings. Subendocardial ischemia patterns are one of the STEMI-equivalents that reflect coronary artery occlusion.
