Review the current definition, risk factors,
clinical impact and incidence of PMI
Describe the different clinical presentation of
PMI and how this dictate the goal and
approach to diagnosis and treatment of PMI
Describe the use and limitation of different
diagnostic tools in the evaluation of
perioperative ischemia and infarction
Present current data on novel diagnostic tools
and therapies used in PMI


Present algorithmic approach to post CABG
patients with signs of ongoing ischemia
Discuss the recent guideline on:

Because of the wide variability in the
definitions used, the incidence of reported MI

is not straightforward
In the early period the
critical issue is :

to determine whether
there is acute severe
ischemia/infarction due
to
 Early Graft Failure
 Acute Native Coronary
Thrombosis

that warrants urgent
intervention.



Some degree of
myocardial injury
virtually always occurs
after CABG
At one end of the
spectrum, the myocardial
injury is manifested as a
small troponin release
with no clinical sequelae

Troponin release may be
from:
 Myocardial trauma
 Imperfect myocardial
protection


At the other end of the
spectrum, is severe
myocardial ischemia or
infarction that is
associated with
hypotension, LCOS and
ventricular arrhythmias
This latter situation
demands urgent
investigation because it
may represent an acute
obstruction of a coronary
graft or native coronary
vessel
Timely intervention may
be life saving


To search for signs
of
ischemia/infarction
which may be due
to
 Early Graft Failure
 Acute Native
Coronary

intervention.

Angina (not reliable):


Pain from myocardial ischemia is very difficult to
distinguish from wound pain
Most are sedated and ventilated during the early
post op period
 Cannot report symptoms

Hemodynamic Instability:
Has many causes
 But one important to consider is ischemia


Hemodynamic Instability

Acute ischemia of severity sufficient to cause
hypotension or low cardiac output state :
 implies a large region of threatened myocardium
 warrants urgent intervention and treatment

Swan Ganz Catheter Measurements suggestive
of LCOS
 Increased in PA pressure
 Increased PCWP
 Low CO

New significant Q waves


ST segment depression



≥ 0.04 second duration in any two
leads except III and aVR
may be indicative of full-thickness
MI
but they take 24 to 48 hours to
develop
therefore not useful in the
assessment of suspected ischemia
≥ 1 mm, measured 0.06 sec after the
J point
if it occurs, develops concurrently
with myocardial ischemia.

subsequent new Q waves after
CABG surgery

acute ischemia.

may indicate acute ischemia,
but they too are common following cardiac surgery.
Recurrent Ventricular Tachycardia

strongly suggestive of severe acute ischemia.


Despite the limitations of ECG analysis,
the finding of ST segment depression or
elevation that is limited to a specific coronary
territory


+ hemodynamic instability / ventricular
arrhythmias
is strongly suggestive of acute ischemia.



All patients with suspected myocardial
ischemia after CABG surgery should undergo
urgent echocardiograms
—preferably a transesophageal
echocardiogram examination looking SWMAs
SWMAs


are more sensitive and specific for myocardial
ischemia than ECG changes
but they can be difficult to interpret in postoperative
patients.
Troponin I



a value > 20 μg/l is associated with prolonged
hospital stay
indicative of early graft failure
Salamonsen RF,. Clin Chem 2005; 51:40-46.

Troponin T

a value > 1.58 μg/l at 18 to 24 hours after surgery is
predictive of adverse outcome, including death.
Januzzi JL. J Am Coll Cardiol 2002; 39:1518-1523.



A limitation of making judgments based on
troponins is that peak levels occur at about 24
hours after an ischemic event
Troponin T peaks a little later than troponin I
Thus, these markers are not ideal for the
evaluation of acute ischemia soon after surgery.

CKMB
is less sensitive and specific than the troponins
 takes nearly 24 hours to reach peak levels.


Myoglobin levels
peak within 6 to 12 hours of ischemic injury
 but are poorly predictive of outcome.
