Nursing Care Plan for AMI with ST elevation (STEMI) Definition Acute myocardial infarction is the destruction of tissue due to inadequate blood supply so that coronary blood flow is reduced. (Brunner & Suddath, 2002) Acute myocardial infarction is the death of myocardial tissue caused by myocardial coronary blood damage, due to the inadequate blood flow. (Carpenito, 2000) Acute myocardial infarction is ischemia or necrosis of the heart muscle caused by decreased blood flow through one or more coronary arteries. (Doengos, 2000) Etiology According to Noer, 1999; 103 caused by a. Causal factors: 1. Oxygen supply to the heart is reduced due to: a. Vascular factors: Atherosclerosis, spasm, arteritis. b. Circulation Factor: hypotension, aortic stenosis, insufficiency. c. Blood factors: anemia, hypoxemia, polycythemia. 2 Cardiac output increased For example: Activity, emotional, eating too much, anemia, hyperthyroidism. 3. Increased myocardial oxygen demand at: Myocardial damage, myocardi...
