Title: Predictors of Left Ventricular Remodeling After Reperfused Acute Myocardial Infarction
Abstract: Recently, Savoye et al1 reported on the incidence of and risk factors for left ventricular (LV) remodeling complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI). They postulated that despite modern therapeutic strategies, LV remodeling remains a rather frequent event after anterior wall AMI. Moreover, they provided evidence that baseline AMI size, systolic blood pressure, and wall motion score index are independently associated with the remodeling process.1
