Acute ST elevation myocardial infarction
Definition
ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is an acute myocardial infarction with developing ST elevation in two contiguous leads of the electrocardiogram (ECG). The criteria of ST elevation are as follows: New ST elevation at the J point in two contiguous leads where these cut points apply: 0.2 millivolt (mV) in men > 40 years, > 0.25mV in men < 40 years, and > 0.15 mV in women.
