STEMI/NSTEMI and OMI/NOMI Paradigms

Guest: Stephen W. Smith, M.D.

Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.

Early detection of acute myocardial infarction (MI) can impact patients' immediate care and long-term outcomes. Most trained physicians can detect common ST-elevation MI (STEMI) patterns on ECG. However, a subset of patients does not present with common STEMI patterns. There are ECG patterns that can be identified to improve patient outcomes but are not yet widely known or accepted in current guidelines.

Joining us today to discuss the STEMI versus non-STEMI (NSTEMI) and occlusion MI (OMI) versus nonocclusion MI (NOMI) paradigms is Stephen W. Smith, M.D., Emergency Medicine, Hennepin Healthcare, in Minneapolis.

Specific topics discussed:

• The problem with the STEMI versus NSTEMI dichotomy
