And, although the organization's purpose is to support the interests of the United States, the Green Berets exist in the haze that floats between the country and other nations, groups and peoples -- they're the nimble fingertips of the United States military and the quiet professionals of the U.S. government.
ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is the name cardiologists currently use to describe a classic heart attack. âMyocardial infarction,â or heart attack, refers to the death of a portion of the heart muscle (myocardium) caused by blood flow interruption. âST segment elevationâ refers to a particular pattern seen on the electrocardiogram (ECG), often seen when a substantial part of the heart muscle is dying.
A heart attack is also called a myocardial infarction or an MI. Myocardial refers to the myocardium, the heart muscle. Infarction is tissue death due to a local lack of oxygen.
