All of the following statements about Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction are true, Except:
Answer is D (Three times increase in Troponin levels after Coronary Aery Bypass Grafting (CABG) Myocardial Infarction associated with CABG is defined by an increase in cardiac biomarkers to more than 5 times normal (> 5 times above the 99th percentile). Universal Defination of Myocardial infarction Myocardial infarction related to ischemia due to primary coronary event (plaque rupture) or imbalace between oxygen demand and supply (coronary spasm, hypotension etc) . Myocardial Infarction related Sudden Cardiac Death (Death occuring before blood samples could be obtained, or at a time before the appearance of cardiac biomarkers in the blood.)
