| ==Prior MI Classification Schemes==
| |
| | |
| There have been several prior classification schemes for characterizing MI:
| |
| | |
| 1. '''Transmural''' (necrosis of full thickness of ventricle) vs. '''non transmural''' (necrosis of partial thickness of ventricle)
| |
| | |
| 2. [[Q wave]] vs. '''non Q wave''': Based upon the development of electrocardiographic Q waves representing electrically inert tissue.
| |
| | |
| 3. [[ST elevation MI]] ([[STEMI]]) and [[Non ST elevation myocardial infarction]] ([[NSTEMI]])
| |
| | |
| At one time it was thought that Transmural MI and Q wave MI were synonymous. However, not all Q wave MIs are transmural, and not all transmural MIs are associated with Q waves.
| |
| | |
| Likewise, not all ST elevation [[MI]]s go on to cause [[q wave]]s. Non ST elevation MIs can result in [[q wave]]s.
| |
| | |
| Thus, ST elevation MI should not be equated with transmural MI or q wave MI. Likewise, Non ST elevation MI should not be equated with non transmural MI or non q wave MI. These 3 designations reflect three separate but overlapping characterization schemes.
| |
| | |
| ==New MI Clinical Classification System==
| |
| A new clinical evidence based classification system has been introduced by '''Thygesen K, Alpert JS, White HD, et al.''' and jointly sponsored by the American College of Cardiology (ACC), American Heart Association (AHA), European Society of Cardiology (ESC), and the World Heart Federation (WHF).<ref name="pmid17951284">{{cite journal |author=Thygesen K, Alpert JS, White HD, ''et al''|title=Universal definition of myocardial infarction |journal=Circulation |volume=116 |issue=22 |pages=2634–53 |year=2007 |month=November |pmid=17951284|doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.107.187397 |url=}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| ==Criteria for Diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction==
| |
| "The term myocardial infarction should be used when there is evidence of myocardial necrosis in a clinical setting consistent with myocardial ischemia. Under these conditions any one of the following criteria meets the diagnosis for acute myocardial infarction". <ref name="pmid17951284">{{cite journal |author=Thygesen K, Alpert JS, White HD, ''et al'' |title=Universal definition of myocardial infarction |journal=Circulation |volume=116 |issue=22 |pages=2634–53 |year=2007 |month=November |pmid=17951284 |doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.107.187397 |url=}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| Below are the criteria quoted from the Thygesen article:
| |
| #Detection of rise and/or fall of cardiac biomarkers (preferably Troponin) with at least one of the following
| |
| #:a. Symptoms of [[ischemia]]
| |
| #:b. [[EKG]] changes indicative of ischemia as new ([[ST segment]] / [[T wave]] changes or new left bundle branch block [[LBBB]])
| |
| #:c. Development of pathological [[Q wave]]s
| |
| #:d. Imaging evidence of new viable myocardium or wall motion abnormality
| |
| #[[Sudden cardiac death|Sudden unexpected cardiac death]], including cardiac arrest, often with symptoms suggestive of myocardial [[ischemia]], accompanied by presumably new [[ST segment]] elevation, or new [[LBBB]], and/or evidence of fresh thrombus in a coronary artery by angiography and/or at autopsy, if death has occurred before blood samples could be obtained, or at a time before the appearance of cardiac biomarkers in the blood
| |
| #In patients with normal baseline [[troponin]] values, a greater than 3 times increase above the 99th percentile of the upper limit of normal of cardiac biomarkers has been designated as the definition of [[PCI]] related myocardial infarction. A subtype related to documented stent thrombosis is recognized.
| |
| #For patients with [[CABG|CABG surgery]]; (In patients with normal baseline [[troponin]] values) increases of cardiac biomarkers greater than 5 times, (> 5 times the 99th percentile upper limit of normal) and either new [[Q wave|pathological Q waves]] or new [[LBBB]] or angiographically evidence of new graft or native vessel occlusion have been designated as defining [[CABG|CABG surgery]] related myocardial infarction. | |
| #Pathological findings of acute myocardial infarction.
| |
| | |
| ==Criteria for Prior Myocardial Infarction==
| |
| | |
| If any of the following are present, then a diagnosis of prior myocardial infarction is established:<ref name="pmid17951284">{{cite journal |author=Thygesen K, Alpert JS, White HD, ''et al'' |title=Universal definition of myocardial infarction |journal=Circulation |volume=116 |issue=22 |pages=2634–53 |year=2007 |month=November |pmid=17951284 |doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.107.187397 |url=}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| *Development of new pathological [[Q wave]]s with or without symptoms
| |
| *Imaging evidence of a region of loss of viable myocardium that is thinned and fails to contract in the absence of a non ischemic cause.
| |
| *Pathological findings of healed or healing myocardial infarction.
| |
| | |
| ==Classification==
| |
| | |
| Five types of MI are now recognized and classified as follows: <ref name="pmid17951284">{{cite journal |author=Thygesen K, Alpert JS, White HD, ''et al'' |title=Universal definition of myocardial infarction |journal=Circulation |volume=116 |issue=22 |pages=2634–53 |year=2007 |month=November |pmid=17951284 |doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.107.187397 |url=}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| '''Type 1:''' ''<u>'''Spontaneous'''</u>'' myocardial infarction related to [[ischemia]] due to a primary coronary event, such as plaque erosion and/or rupture, fissuring, or dissection.
| |
| | |
| '''Type 2:''' Myocardial infarction secondary to [[ischemia]] due to an ''<u>'''imbalance of O<sub>2</sub> supply and demand'''</u>'', as from coronary spasm or [[embolism]], [[anemia]], [[arrhythmias]], [[hypertension]], or [[hypotension]]
| |
| | |
| '''Type 3:''' ''<u>'''Sudden unexpected cardiac death'''</u>'', including [[cardiac arrest]], often with symptoms suggesting [[ischemia]] with new [[STEMI|ST segment elevation]]; new [[left bundle branch block]]; or pathologic or angiographic evidence of fresh [[thrombus|coronary thrombus]] (in the absence of reliable biomarker findings)
| |
| | |
| '''Type 4:'''
| |
| | |
| :a. Myocardial infarction associated with ''<u>'''Percutaneous Coronary Interventions'''</u>'' ([[PCI]])
| |
| | |
| :b. Myocardial infarction associated with documented ''<u>'''stent thrombosis'''</u>''.
| |
| | |
| '''Type 5:''' Myocardial infarction associated with ''<u>'''Coronary Artery Bypass Graft surgery'''</u>''

| | |
| ==Overview==
| |
| Cardiac markers or cardiac enzymes are proteins that are present in cardiac myocytes that should not be in the bloodstream. When cardiac injury occurs (such as in acute MI), these intracellular proteins are then released into the bloodstream. Along with the patient's history and the electrocardiogram, the release of these enzymes forms the basis of the diagnosis of ST elevation myocardial infarction.
| |
| | |
| ==History==
| |
| Until the 1980s, the enzymes [[Aspartate transaminase|SGOT]] and [[lactate dehydrogenase|LDH]] were used to assess cardiac injury. In the early 1980s it was found that disproportional elevation of the ''MB'' subtype of the enzyme [[creatine kinase]] (CK) was very specific for myocardial injury. More recently, troponin has been used as an even more specific marker of myonecrosis. Current guidelines are generally in favor of [[troponin]] sub-units I or T, which are very specific for damage to myocytes.<ref name="pmid16918269">{{cite journal |author=Eisenman A |title=Troponin assays for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and acute coronary syndrome: where do we stand? |journal=Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther |volume=4 |issue=4 |pages=509–14 |year=2006 |month=July |pmid=16918269 |doi=10.1586/14779072.4.4.509 |url=}}</ref> <ref name="pmid12087140">{{cite journal |author=Aviles RJ, Askari AT, Lindahl B, ''et al'' |title=Troponin T levels in patients with acute coronary syndromes, with or without renal dysfunction |journal=N. Engl. J. Med. |volume=346 |issue=26 |pages=2047–52 |year=2002 |month=June |pmid=12087140 |doi=10.1056/NEJMoa013456 |url=}}</ref><ref>[http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/content/full/167/6/671 Summary of "Troponin T levels in patients..." for laymen]</ref>
| |
| | |
| ==Clinical Application of Cardiac Markers==
| |
| It is important to note that it may take hours for cardiac enzymes to rise following injury to the myocardium, and that they may not be elevated on presentation. For this reason, cardiac enzymes and ECGs are checked every 6 to 8 hours over the course of the first 24 hours to "rule out" acute MI. These enzyme measures over the first 24 hours are used to gauge the size of an MI: higer peak levels and a greater area under the curve of enzyme release are associated with larger MIs and poorer prognosis.
| |
| | |
| =="False Positive" Troponin Elevations That Are Not Due to Thrombotic Coronary Occlusion==
| |
| It is important to note that cardiac troponins are a marker of all heart muscle damage, not just myocardial infarction. There are other "false positive" causes of troponin elevation that directly or indirectly lead to heart muscle damage can also therefore increase troponin levels:<ref name="pmid15867411">{{cite journal |author=Jeremias A, Gibson CM |title=Narrative review: alternative causes for elevated cardiac troponin levels when acute coronary syndromes are excluded |journal=Ann.
