About this trial
In a single-center, open-label, prospective, controlled, clinical study, it is planned to include 300 patients hospitalized in the cardiology department of SBHI Penza regional clinical hospital n.a. N.N. Burdenko. Recruitment of patients will be carried out at the Department of Therapy of the Medical Institute of the Penza State University. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria and not meeting the exclusion criteria will be included in the study.
Initially, lipid-lowering treatment with atorvastatin is prescribed at a dose of 80 mg / day from the first 24-96 hours of AMI in addition to the standard therapy.
If there is no achievement of the target level of LDL-C, ≤1.5 mmol / L after 5-6 weeks from the AMI onset, patients additionally receive ezetimibe at a dose of 10 mg 1 time / day.
Standard AMI treatment includes dual antiplatelet therapy, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers (if indicated). Prescription of proton pump inhibitors and nitrates is possible (if indicated).
The total follow-up is 96 weeks. Prescreening - 600 people; screening and randomization - 300 people. Parameters of electrical myocardial heterogeneity, myocardial deformation characteristics, vascular rigidity, and quality of life will be assessed according to the study plan.
