mismatch in the absence of acute thrombosis. 2, 3 Correct classification carries important treatment implications, since the short-and long-term management of a type 1 MI is centred on coronary plaque stabilization, clot prevention, and dissolution, whereas the management of a type 2 event has been traditionally focused toward treatment of its precipitating factors.To that end, type 2 MIs reflect a very heterogeneous disease state, since a myriad of conditions may contribute to both increased myocardial demand (eg tachyarrhythmia, hypertensive urgency, sepsis, and heart failure) or diminished oxygen delivery to the myocardium [eg hypoxia, anaemia, hypotension, coronary artery disease (CAD), vasospasm, microvascular disease, or endothelial dysfunction]. Although a high proportion of patients who experience a type 2 MI carry a diagnosis of CAD, the true prevalence of epicardial disease in this patient population is not known as many may be assigned a diagnosis of CAD in the absence of diagnostic imaging subsequent to a rise and fall in serum troponin. More widespread testing and the development of more sensitive troponin assays have probably contributed to the rising incidence of type 2 MI events. Nonetheless, it remains largely unexplored whether traditional risk factors may contribute to type 2 MI risk and whether treatment of these risk factors may confer benefit.
