Ischemia is the starvation of muscle cells for oxygen brought on by a reduc- tion of blood flow. MI is a myocardial infarction. An infarction is muscle cell death caused by an extended starvation of muscle cells for oxygen. The area of the heart that has died will not recover well and if the infarction is extensive, a trans- plant may be the only treatment. Eugene M.
