Heart Muscle Viability and Remodeling in Individuals Post-Heart Attack

Completed

Conditions studied: Cardiovascular Diseases, Coronary Disease, Myocardial Infarction, Heart Diseases, Heart Failure, Congestive

In brief

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of heart muscle viability on left ventricular (LV) remodeling after a heart attack; to explore the relationships between retained viability of the area of tissue death (infarct zone), LV remodeling, response to the Occluded Artery Trial (OAT) intervention, and response to late percutaneous coronary intervention of the infarct related artery (IRA).
