A non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, also called an NSTEMI or a non-STEMI, is a type of heart attack. While it's often less damaging to your heart than a STEMI, it's still a serious ...

CHICAGO — A new artificial intelligence (AI) model performed about as well as high-sensitivity troponin for the detection of non–ST-elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) on an ECG, but better than ...

In a recently published study in the journal Nature Medicine, researchers developed and tested an intelligent model for diagnosing patients with occlusion myocardial infarction (OMI). This model was ...

If the finding on an ECG is “septal infarct, age undetermined,” it means that the patient possibly had a heart attack at an undetermined time in the past. Septal infarct is a patch of dead, dying, or ...

Some clinicians say that testing for occlusion myocardial infarction (OMI) instead might be a better tool for making that determination. “We think we should get rid of the term ST-elevation MI, ...

Myocardial ischemia is a drop in blood flow to the heart. Myocardial infarction, or heart attack, occurs when death or damage occurs in the muscle tissue of the heart due to low blood supply. The ...

Myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is a heterogeneous condition with diverse underlying causes, including atherosclerotic and nonatherosclerotic mechanisms. A ...

AliveCor announced today that it received FDA clearance for the next generation of its AI technology for the Kardia 12L ECG ...

PLASMA and serum enzyme-activity alterations have proved useful as laboratory parameters in the diagnosis of myocardial disease. 1 Among the enzymes employed to reflect myocardial necrosis are ...

The evidence supporting beta-blocker therapy after myocardial infarction was established before the introduction of modern coronary reperfusion therapy and secondary prevention strategies. In an ...
