Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Main Inclusion Criteria: • Signed and dated written informed consent in accordance with ICH-GCP and local legislation prior to admission to the trial • Diagnosis of acute MI (type 1 per the Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction [R20-0005]): STEMI or NSTEMI with randomisation to occur no later than 14 calendar days after hospital admission. For patients with an in-hospital MI as qualifying event, randomisation must still occur within 14 days of hospital admission. • High risk of HF, defined as EITHER a) Symptoms (e.g. dyspnea; decreased exercise tolerance; fatigue), or signs of congestion (e.g. pulmonary rales,crackles or crepitations; elevated jugular venous pressure; congestion on chest X-ray), that require treatment (e.g. augmentation or initiation of oral diuretic therapy; i.v. diuretic therapy; i.v. vasoactive agent; mechanical intervention etc.) at any time during the hospitalisation. OR b) Newly developed LVEF 65 years - Newly developed LVEF 1,400 pg/mL for patients in sinus rhythm, >2,800 pg/mL if atrial fibrillation; BNP >350 pg/mL for patients in sinus rhythm, >700 pg/mL if atrial fibrillation, measured at any time during hospitalisation - Uric acid >7.5 mg/dL (>446 µmol/L), measured at any time during hospitalisation - Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure [or right ventricular systolic pressure] >40 mmHg (non-invasive [usually obtained from clinically indicated post-MI echocardiography] or invasive, at any time during hospitalisation) - Patient not revascularized (and no planned revascularization) for the index MI (Includes e.g. patients where no angiography is performed, unsuccessful revascularization attempts, diffuse atherosclerosis not amenable for intervention; but does NOT include if revascularization was not performed due to nonobstructive coronary arteries) - 3-vessel coronary artery disease at time of index MI - Diagnosis of peripheral artery disease (extracoronary vascular disease, e.g. lower extremity artery disease or carotid artery disease)
