Because the ST segment on the ECG does not become elevated in this condition, it is called a non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, or NSTEMI. When the blood clot that forms during ACS completely blocks the artery, all the heart muscle supplied by the artery begins to die.
ST-segment is a portion of ECG; its elevation indicates full thickness injury of heart muscle. Absence of ST-segment elevation in NSTEMI is understood to involve less than full thickness (partial thickness) damage of heart muscle. Therefore, NSTEMI is less severe type of heart attack compared to STEMI (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) in which full thickness damage of heart muscle develops.
