BEtablocker Treatment After Acute Myocardial Infarction

A trial to test if treatment with a beta-blocker is still favorable after a heart attack

About BETAMI

Beta-blockers have been part of the treatment after heart attacks since the early 1980s, where three studies showed a beneficial effect on survival. However, since then, the treatment of the heart attack patient has changed drastically, both in the acute course (revascularization) and afterwards to prevent further problems (secondary prevention).

It is important to reassess beta-blockers' place in treating heart attacks. Do they have the beneficial effect anymore considering the treatment options now available?

BETAMI will repeat the scientific trial that was carried out over 30 years ago, but with today's standard of care.
