Myocardial Infarction Ischemic Symptoms/Angina/ACS

O Type 1: Spontaneous

• Note: Don’t adjudicate just on biomarkers

• Spontaneous clinical syndrome; Rise and fall in cardiac biomarkers, preferably troponin with at least one value >99th percentile;
  • And at least one of the following:
    • Symptoms of myocardial ischemia
    • New or presumed new significant ST-segment –T wave (ST–T) changes or new LBBB on the ECG
    • Development of pathological Q waves on the ECG
    • Imaging evidence of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality
    • Identification of an intracoronary thrombus by angiography or autopsy.

O Type 2: Ischemic Imbalance

• Spontaneous clinical syndrome; a condition other than CAD contributes to an imbalance; myocardial oxygen and/or demand (coronary endothelial dysfunction, coronary artery spasm, coronary embolism, tachy/bradyarrhythias, anemia, respiratory failure, hypotension/hypertension (with or without LVH; Rise and fall in cardiac biomarkers, preferably troponin with at least one value >99th percentile;
  • AND at least one of the following:
    • Symptoms of myocardial ischemia
    • New or presumed new significant ST-segment–T wave (ST–T) changes or new LBBB on the ECG
    • Development of pathological Q waves on the ECG
    • Imaging evidence of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality

O Type 3: Sudden Cardiac Death

• Symptoms suggest myocardial ischemia present,
  • AND with (presumed) new ischemic changes or new LBBB on ECG
    • Death occurs before biomarkers can be obtained or could rise; or (in rare cases) were not collected.

O Type 4a: Related to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

• MI defined by elevation of cTn values >5 x 99th percentile URL in patients with normal baseline values (<99th percentile URL) or a rise of cTn values >20% if the baseline values are elevated and are stable or falling.
  • AND at least one of the following:
    • (i) symptoms suggestive of myocardial ischemia, or
    • (ii) new ischemic ECG changes or new LBBB, or
    • (iii) angiographic loss of patency of a major coronary artery or a side branch or persistent slow- or no-flow or embolization, or
    • (iv) imaging demonstration of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality are required.

O Type 4b: Related to stent thrombosis

• MI detected by coronary angiography or autopsy in the setting of myocardial ischemia and with a rise and/ or fall of cardiac biomarkers values
  • AND at least one value above the 99th percentile URL.

O Type 4c: Related to stent restenosis

• ≥ 50% stenosis at coronary angiography or a complex lesion associated with a rise and/or fall of cTn values .99th percentile upper reference limit and no other significant obstructive CAD of greater severity following:
  • Initially successful stent deployment or
  • Dilatation of a coronary artery stenosis with balloon angioplasty (<50%).

O Type 5: CABG Related

• MI associated with and occurring within 48 hours of CABG surgery with elevated biomarkers >10 X 99th percentile of URL in subjects with normal baseline values < or =99th percentile URL.
  • AND at least one of the following:
    • New pathological Q waves, new LBBB on ECG
    • Angiographic new graft or new native coronary artery occlusion.
    • Imaging evidence of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality
