Disparities in Myocardial Infarction Remodeling According to Gender

Sponsor

University Hospital, Angers

Enrollment

1,650 participants

Start Date

Jul 15, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Myocardial Infarction Ventricular Remodeling

Summary

Following myocardial infarction, female individuals demonstrate a poorer prognosis, characterized by elevated rates of mortality and heart failure. A primary hypothesis suggests unfavorable cardiac remodeling in women. This remodeling, defined as alterations in cardiac size and shape post-infarction, necessitates repeated non-invasive imaging for study.
