Abstract

With the discovery of new biomarkers for the early detection of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), advancements in valid medication, and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the overall prognosis of AMI has improved remarkably. Nevertheless, challenges remain which require more difficult work to overcome. Novel diagnostic and therapeutic techniques include new AMI biomarkers, hypothermia therapy, supersaturated oxygen (SSO 2 ) therapy, targeted anti-inflammatory therapy, targeted angiogenesis therapy, and stem cell therapy. With these novel methods, we believe that the infarction size after AMI will decrease, and myocardial injury-associated ventricular remodeling may be avoided. This review focuses on novel advances in the diagnosis and management of AMI.
