Gender Differences in Prevention Strategies and Therapeutic Adherence After Acute Myocardial Infarction - GENAMI PREVENTION
In Brief
An observational study for Gender Differences and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 530 participants across 25 sites.
Detailed Summary
PARTICIPANT CENTERS: 25 hospitals managing routinely acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and representing different regions from Spain will be invited to participate. GENERAL OBJECTIVE: To evaluate if there are differences in the level of adherence to recommended secondary prevention therapies (pharmacological and non-pharmacological) between women and men surviving a type 1 acute myocardial infarction (with obstructive coronary artery disease), its potential consequences, and the potential factors related to that difference, if present. DESIGN: Prospective, matched cohort study of patients hospitalized for a type 1 acute myocardial infarction with evidence of obstructive coronary artery disease who are discharged home alive. Women will be enrolled first, ideally in a consecutive manner, as they are the focus of the study. Men will be recruited subsequently as the comparison group, with 1:1 matching for age and ECG presentation. Matching will be performed locally, in each study site (hospital). All patients will undergo 1-year follow-up with clinical and therapeutic adherence evaluation. \- Reference cohort: 500 women discharged alive after a hospitalization for a type 1 acute myocardial infarction with significant coronary artery disease. \- Comparator cohort: 500 age (±2 years) and ECG (ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) / non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)) locally matched men discharged alive after a hospitalization for a type 1 acute myocardial infarction with significant coronary artery disease.
