Type 2 myocardial infarction (MI) is defined by a rise and fall of cardiac biomarkers and evidence of ischemia without unstable coronary artery disease (CAD), due to a mismatch in myocardial oxygen supply and demand. Myocardial injury is similar but does not meet clinical criteria for MI. There is uncertainty regarding clinical characteristics, management and outcomes of type 2 MI and myocardial injury in comparison to type 1 MI. Patients admitted to a Veterans Affairs tertiary-care hospital with a rise and fall in cardiac troponin (cTnI) were identified. MI and injury subtypes, presentation, management, and outcomes were determined. Type 1 MI, type 2 MI, and myocardial injury occurred in 137, 146, and 175 patients, respectively. Patients with type 2 MI were older (p=0.02), had lower peak cTnI (p<0.001), and were less likely to receive aspirin and statin at discharge (p<0.001) than type 1 MI survivors. All-cause mortality (median follow-up 1.8 years) was not different between patient groups (type 1 MI mortality: 29.9%, type 2 MI: 30.8%, myocardial injury: 29.7%; log-rank p=0.94). A significant proportion of deaths were attributed to cardiovascular causes in all subgroups (type 1 MI: 34.1%, type 2 MI: 17.8%, myocardial injury: 30.8%). Patients with type 2 MI and myocardial injury were less likely to receive medical therapy for CAD than those with type 1 MI. No differences in all-cause mortality among MI subtypes were observed. Additional studies to determine optimal medical therapy and risk stratification strategies for these high-risk populations are warranted.
