Abbreviation: ACS
Refers to a spectrum of conditions compatible with<unk>  myocardial ischemia and/or infarction that are usually due to an abrupt reduction in<unk>  blood flow.
The new title, “Non-ST-Elevation<unk> ,” emphasizes the continuum between UA and NSTEMI
NSTEMI myocardium is damaged enough to increase biomarkers, UA is not.
Type 1: Spontaneous Myocardial Infarction
Atherosclerotic plaque rupture or intraluminal thrombus in one or more of the<unk>  arteries
Type 2: Myocardial Infarction Secondary to an Ischemic Imbalance
Condition other than CAD contributes to an imbalance between myocardial oxygen supply and/or demand (e.g.<unk>  spasm, embolism, low or high blood pressures, anemia, or arrhythmias)
Type 3: Cardiac Death Due to Myocardial Infarction
Sudden cardiac death with symptoms suggestive of myocardial ischaemia without elevated biomarkers
Type 4: Myocardial Infarction Associated With Revascularization Procedure
4a: Related to PCI
4b: Related to Stent Thrombosis
Type 5: Myocardial Infarction Related to CABG Procedure
Atherosclerotic plaque rupture or intraluminal thrombus in one or more of the<unk>  arteries
Condition other than CAD contributes to an imbalance between myocardial oxygen supply and/or demand (e.g.<unk>  spasm, embolism, low or high blood pressures, anemia, or arrhythmias)
Sudden cardiac death with symptoms suggestive of myocardial ischaemia without elevated biomarkers
4a: Related to PCI
4b: Related to Stent Thrombosis
