- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: Incidence rate of the composite of ¿all-cause death, nonfatal reinfarction, or heart failure hospitalization¿.;Secondary Objective: 1) Incidence rate of individual components of the primary outcome. 2) Incidence rate of cardiac mortality. ;Primary end point(s): To assess the benefits of beta-blocker maintenance therapy in patients discharged after an acute myocardial infarction (MI) with a left ventricular ejection fraction >40%. Beta-blocker treatment will be associated with a 20% reduction in the incidence rate of the primary composite endpoint: incidence rate of the composite of all-cause death, non fatal reinfarction, or heart failure hospitalization”.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Minimum follow-up 2 years, maximum follow-up 3 years. Estimated median follow-up 2.75 years
