Long-term follow-up for heart attack survivors

Long-Term Follow-Up in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction Cohort - a Prospective, Multicenter Study

This study checks in with heart attack survivors a few years after their hospital stay to see how they’re doing with their health and medications.

Quick facts

• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 15000 (estimated)
• Ages: 18 Years and up
• Sex: All
• Sponsor: Harbin Medical University (Academic / other)
• Locations: 18 sites (Beijing, Beijing Municipality and 17 other locations)
• Trial ID: NCT05862103 on ClinicalTrials.gov

What this trial studies

This observational study follows up with survivors of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who previously participated in a myocardial protection project. Participants will be contacted by telephone at 3 and 5 years post-discharge to gather information on their medication, health status, and any major adverse cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events. The study aims to assess long-term outcomes and the effectiveness of treatment strategies in this population.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are AMI survivors who completed a 1-year follow-up visit as part of a previous myocardial protection project.

Not a fit: Patients who did not participate in the initial project or those who have not survived the first year post-AMI may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the long-term health and treatment needs of AMI survivors.

How similar studies have performed: While similar long-term follow-up studies have been conducted, this specific approach focusing on AMI survivors and their treatment outcomes is relatively novel.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

* AMI survivors who participated in the project "Construction and key technology research of the whole myocardial protection system for acute myocardial infarction" and completed the 1-year visit.
* Telephone to obtain informed consent from the subjects/family members of the subjects.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Not available
