Heart Disease, Myocardial Infarction (MI)
Conditions
Brief summary
The main objective of the study is to identify the optimal surgical timing for the treatment of intraventricular defects after acute myocardial infarction.
Detailed description
Identify the optimal timing for the treatment of post-infarction ventricular defect, considering the time interval between the clinical-instrumental diagnosis and the surgical intervention.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Identify the optimal timing for the surgical intervention. | Possible timing for surgery can be: onset of the infarction episode, hospital admission, before seven days from the acute myocardial infarction or after seven days from the acute myocardial infarction. | The optimal timing considering the time interval between the clinical-instrumental diagnosis and the surgical intervention |
