Welcome to Talk 10 Tuesday, Karen.

Thank you.

Thank you for having me.

I'm excited to talk today about the new fifth universal definition of myocardial infarction because this is one of those updates where you read it and think, This makes a lot of clinical sense.

And then your CDI coding and quality parts of your brain immediately start asking a lot of questions.

New definitions for MI were released at the end of August.

The biggest changes are that the familiar type 1 through type 5 MI terminology has been replaced with three broader categories, primary MI, secondary MI, and procedure-related MI.
