abstract
|
Patients after myocardial infarction are at a substantial risk for
recurrent cardiac events; therefore, an optimal patient care is of
great importance. Early revascularisation is one important
contributor to the prognosis after myocardial infarction.
Antithrombotic agents, betablockers, and ACE-inhibitors also
contribute significantly to the improved outcome after myocardial
infarction. Reduction of risk factors, in particular cessation of
smoking and lowering of lipids are of highest importance to improve
the prognosis after myocardial infarction.
