    This document discusses acute myocardial infarction (AMI), also known as a heart attack. It defines AMI and lists modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, diabetes, and age or family history. The pathology of AMI involves blockage of one of the coronary arteries cutting off blood supply to heart muscle. Diagnosis is made through electrocardiography and by measuring biomarkers like CK-MB, myoglobin, and troponin levels that indicate heart muscle damage. Treatment principles focus on rapidly restoring blood flow and managing complications, while long term management aims to prevent future AMIs.
