Conditions

ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI)

Brief summary

This study is designed to investigate the effect of a nutrition program supported by digital content on heart function in patients who have experienced a heart attack with ST-elevation. Participants will receive personalized dietary guidance and digital support materials for three months. The main goal is to determine whether this digital support materials can improve heart pumping function (measured by left ventricular ejection fraction). Participation involves following the dietary program and undergoing heart function measurements at the beginning, after one months and after three months.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALDigital Content-Supported Medical Nutrition Therapy

Participants receive a personalized medical nutrition therapy program supported by digital content. The program includes educational materials, meal planning guides, and remote support. The intervention lasts 3 months, with follow-up visits at baseline, 1 month, and 3 months. Heart function (LVEF) will be measured at each time point.

Masking description

Echocardiography assessments are performed by a cardiologist blinded to group assignment.

Intervention model description

Participants are randomly assigned in a parallel design to either the intervention group receiving digital content-supported medical nutrition therapy or the control group receiving standard dietary care. Heart function (LVEF) will be measured at baseline, at 1 month, and at 3 months of follow-up.
