Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the main causes of death in Brazil, most of which occur within the first 24 hours of the onset of the disease, and almost half of them within the first hour. Thus, early identification of the clinical picture of AMI is of paramount importance so that there is an effective treatment in a timely manner. The present study sought to assess the knowledge of these students about AMI, in order to indicate the need to fill gaps in medical learning. This is a descriptive-exploratory quantitative study carried out with 260 students from the 5th to the 12th semester of the medical course of Brazilian institutions. Data collection occurred through the application of a questionnaire with 12 questions about the management of AMI. Data were analyzed using simple descriptive statistics. There was a prevalence of females (66.9%), who attend the state of São Paulo (86.1%), from the 5th, 6th, 7th and 9th semesters (76.1%), from 20 to 25 years old (83, 8%). The fifth semester had an average of 5, the sixth, seventh and tenth, an average of 6 and the eighth, ninth, eleventh and twelfth, an average of 7. The most correct questions were about myocardial necrosis markers (73.46%), time minimum to perform the ECG (70.76%). The ones with the highest error rates were about contraindications for thrombectomy (13.07%) and conduct not indicated for right ventricular AMI (35.77%). Medical students have insufficient knowledge regarding the management of acute myocardial infarction.
