Relationship Between Left Ventricular Remodeling, Coronary Endothelial Function and Myocardial Fibrosis Using Positron Emission Tomography in Patients With ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction

Not Applicable
Suspended
Conditions
ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Registration Number
NCT02789098
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Caen
Brief Summary

Left ventricular remodeling is a common complication in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI ) and may lead to heart failure. Hemodynamic, metabolic and inflammatory mechanisms are involved in this pathophysiological process. Recent data demonstrated that remote, noninfarct-related region of the myocardium is also implicated. There is no data about the assessment of coronary endothelial function or myocardial fibrosis in the remote zone in patients with STEMI . The correlation between these parameters and left ventricular remodeling is not known.
