Final answer:
In a patient with coronary artery disease admitted due to an acute myocardial infarction, the AMI should be sequenced before the coronary artery disease.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the context of a patient with coronary artery disease (CAD) being admitted due to an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the AMI should be sequenced before the coronary artery disease. Myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when there is a lack of blood flow and oxygen to a region of the heart, resulting in the death of cardiac muscle cells. Coronary artery disease refers to a group of diseases that result from the build-up of plaque (atherosclerosis) in the arteries of the heart, which can lead to conditions such as angina and myocardial infarction.
