Summary:Biomarkers may increase with successful procedures and optimal stent implantation (4). [...]isolated biomarker elevation should not be used to define MI. Biomarkers less than cutpoints as above without Q waves, symptoms or signs of ischemia (not defined), or heart failure Table 1 Differences Between the Proposed SCAI Definition and the Universal Definition of Type 4a MI CK-MB = creatine kinase-myocardial band; ECG = electrocardiogram; LBBB = left bundle branch block; MI = myocardial infarction; ULN = upper limit of normal; URL = upper reference limit; SCAI = Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions.
