China PEACE-Prospective AMI Study

Coronary heart disease (CHD) and heart attacks pose a serious health risk to men and women, however little information is available about how evidence-based therapies are incorporated appropriately into routine clinical practice in China. In addition, basic data and evidence about safety and efficacy of treatment for AMI is limited. By consecutively recruiting AMI patients in 40 hospitals of different levels, this study will examine various real-life factors, that may affect patients recovery after a heart attack. Practical guidelines and risk model for AMI patients will be established based on the findings, to improve patients outcomes in future finally.
