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
