Conditions

Myocardial Infarction, Acute

Brief summary

The WAMIF study was conducted from 2017 to 2019, including 314 patients in 30 French research centers spread across metropolitan France. It systematically collected the clinical, morphological, and biological characteristics of myocardial infarction cases affecting women under 50 years of age and assessed their short-term (in-hospital) and medium-term (12-month) prognosis. Extending the follow-up beyond 12 months for this first study would provide fundamental data for understanding and improving the care of these patients.

Detailed description

The WAMIF study was conducted from 2017 to 2019, including 314 patients in 30 French research centers spread across metropolitan France. It systematically collected the clinical, morphological, and biological characteristics of myocardial infarction cases affecting women under 50 years of age and assessed their short-term (in-hospital) and medium-term (12-month) prognosis. The main results were: a particularly high incidence of modifiable risk factors affecting 86% of patients, with smoking being the primary cause in 75% of them.The clinical presentation found chest pain in more than 90% of cases. The pathophysiological forms of acute coronary syndrome identified the culprit artery in 90% of cases, a form without obstruction (MINOCA) was found in 17.8% of ST segment elevation infarctions (STEMI), spontaneous dissection in 14.6% of STEMI and 16.3% of NSTEMI.At 12 months, follow-up showed no cardiovascular deaths and two deaths related to neoplastic causes. At the end of this follow-up, 90% had no events. Compared to existing studies, these event rates are extremely low. Extending the follow-up beyond 12 months for this first study would provide fundamental data for understanding and improving the care of these patients. The secondary objective is the evaluation of the quality of life and mental health of women who have had an MI before the age of 50 years at a distance from the acute event.

Interventions

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Anxiety score5 to 10 years after the participation in WAMIF studyGeneralized Anxiety Disorder 7 items. It provides a total score to evaluate patient anxiety (range 0 to 21: 0-4: minimal anxiety; 5-9: mild anxiety; 10-14: moderate anxiety; 15-21: severe anxiety)
Depression score5 to 10 years after the participation in WAMIF studyPatient Health Questionnaire 9 items. It provides a total score (range 0-27, 1-4 minimal depression; 5-9 mild depression; 10-14 moderate depression; 15-19 moderately severe depression; 20-27 severe depression) to diagnose and measure severity of depression.
Quality of life score5 to 10 years after the participation in WAMIF studyEuropean Quality of Life 5 Dimensions. It provides a total score (range 0-100, from worst to the best) to evaluate the generic quality of life
Stress score5 to 10 years after the participation in WAMIF studyPerceived Stress Scale 4 items. It provides a total score (range 10-50, from worst to best) to assess the state of stress perceived by the patient
