B
MI is the death of heart tissue caused by obstruction of a coronary artery with atherosclerotic plaque or a thrombus or embolus. It is the leading cause of sudden death in adults. If a large coronary artery is obstructed affecting the left ventricle, myocardial tissue is damaged and the heart cannot pump efficiently; death may occur immediately if the client does not have adequate collateral circulation.
