Definition of myocardial infarction: New Q-waves in ≥2 leads lasting ≥0.04 sec with creatine kinase- myoglobin band (CK-MB)/troponin above upper limit of normal (ULN); if no new Q-waves elevation of post-procedure CK levels >2.0× ULN with positive CK-MB, or, if the assay for CK-MB was not performed, elevation of CK levels >2.0× ULN with positive troponin. Drawing a CK-MB or troponin is mandated if CK is greater than 2× ULN. If no CK-MB or troponin was drawn, CK >2× ULN will be considered an MI. ULN is determined per local laboratory specifications.
