Following up on a previous article written by Lindow et al, this article aims to further discuss a switch from STEMI to Occlusion Myocardial Infarction (OMI). The article explains how OMI can be diagnosed both with or without the ECG, it criticises how the STEMI criteria were created and how they are often used as lone rule-in criteria for acute angiography. False positive STEMI lead to many unnecessary angiographies, while OMI shows better sensitivity, and multiple AI models based on OMI have retrospectively shown to be very promising in choosing which patients need immediate intervention. Using OMI is proposed to lead to less delayed interventions, but this subject needs further investigation; however, prospective studies of OMI as determinant of urgent intervention are ongoing. The authors therefore believe OMI could be implemented within the near future.
