Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To estimate the proportion of MINOCA patients in whom an etiological diagnosis can be established by MRI. Timepoint: 6 months: Recruitment of 50 % of patients of the study 12 months: Completion of patient recruitment Follow up of already recruited patients 18 months: Complete follow up of all patients for mortality 24 months: Completion of data analysis

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) To estimate the proportion of patients with ischemic etiology for MINOCA. 2) To estimate the proportion of various non ischemic causes for MINOCA 3) To assess 6 months to 1 year MACE in these patients. Timepoint: 6 months: Recruitment of 50 % of patients of the study 12 months: Completion of patient recruitment Follow up of already recruited patients 18 months: Complete follow up of all patients for mortality 24 months: Completion of data analysis
