                                                    1. STEMI
                                                      1. Thrombus lodges permanently; Infarction extends through myocardial wall; ST segment elevation; Highest risk for serious complications
                                                      2. Non- STEMI
                                                        1. Thomrbus may have broken up before significant distal necrosis occurred; subendocardial; usually ST depression and T wave inversion; recurrent thrombus formation on plaque likely to occur w/o intervention
                                                  1. Congesitve Heart Failure
                                                    1. GENERAL: Increased diastolic (filllling) pressures or inc. diastolic volume. Not enough getting out. Risk factors: CAD, HTN (high afterload, vasoconstricted)
                                                      1. Left sided heart failure
                                                        1. SYSTOLIC
                                                          1. decreased ejection fraction- (normal ejection is 50-75%) this is because there is dec. contractility - causes inc. preload and inc. afterload i- which causes dec. contractility - viscious cycle
                                                          2. DIASTOLIC
                                                            1. dec. filling of the LV - Why would this happen? Ventricle is stiff - dec. compliance, doesn't stretch well (due to HTN, remodeling, cardiomyopathy), so it doesn't fill well. leads to dec. preload. this may be OK at rest but when you exercise your heart won't be able to handle it
                                                            2. SEQUELAE _ blood backs up, causes blood to back up into the lungs - Pulmonary Edema; stasis of bllodd in left chamber because it's not pumping well; inadequate perfusion of tissues
                                                            3. Right sided heart failure
                                                              1. LEFT SIDED FAILURE

                                                              2. Dysrhythmias
