Early eplerenone treatment in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction without heart failure: the randomized double-blind reminder study

Original language description

Aims We aimed to assess the impact of eplerenone on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in STEMI without known heart failure, when initiated within 24 h of symptom onset. Methods and results In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial, we assigned 1012 patients with acute STEMI and without a history of heart failure to receive either eplerenone (25-50 mg once daily) or placebo in addition to standard therapy. The primary endpoint was the composite of CV mortality, re-hospitalization, or, extended initial hospital stay, due to diagnosis of HF, sustained ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation, ejection fraction <= 40%, or elevated BNP/NT-proBNP at 1 month or more after randomization. BNP elevation was defined as BNP levels or values above 200 pg/mL or NT-proBNP values above 450 pg/mL (in patients aged below 50); above 900 pg/mL (age 50-75 years) or above 1800 pg/mL (patients older than 75). After a mean follow-up of 10.5 months, the primary endpoint occurred in 92 patients (18.2
