About this trial

Ventricular arrhythmias are a serious complication of myocardial infarction. The aim of this study is to provide reliable data on the management and mortality associated with ventricular arrhythmia in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

≥ 18 years

Acute myocardial infarction

Sustained ventricular arrhythmia (ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation) at the acute phase of an acute myocardial infarction (before hospital discharge)

Between January 1, 2012 and April 14, 2024

Disqualifiers

None

Trial population

All included individuals will be consecutive patients who developed a sustained ventricular arrhythmia during the acute phase of a myocardial infarction between January 1, 2012, and April 14, 2024.
