PREdisposition Genetical in Cardiac Insufficiency = Genetic Predisposition to Heart Failure (PREGICA)
ST Elevation (STEMI) Myocardial Infarction of Other Sites
About this trial
This is an interventional other trial for ST Elevation (STEMI) Myocardial Infarction of Other Sites focused on measuring Patient collection, Cardiac remodelling, Echography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Gene polymorphisms, Biomarkers
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
*Selection criteria
Any patient hospitalised in the CCU of the participating centers:
- with a diagnosis of a first MI
- with ST segment elevation and/or Q wave at admission
- with troponin elevation
- seen within the first 24 hours after symptom onset
- aged between 18 and 80 years is selected.
consent emergency clause: His/her informed consent is obtained and he/she signs the consent form or However, if a member of the patients' family is present, his/her consent must be obtained or no consent
*Inclusion
- The first transthoracic echocardiography is performed at day 4±2 in all patients selected.
- In the presence of at least 3 akinetic LV segments at the transthoracic echocardiography, the patient is included.
Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients with diagnosis of previous MI, hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathy, significant valvular heart disease, chronic atrial fibrillation, or pace maker or any permanently implanted device susceptible to interfere with LV remodelling.
- Patients with preexisting heart failure.
- Patients having undergone previous cardiac surgery.
- Patients having received chemotherapy susceptible to induce LV remodeling (anthracyclines).
- Patients with an associated short-time life-threatening disease.
- Patients with poor echogenicity.
- Patients without health insurance.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1

1:cohort
Our main goal is to create a prospective cohort of 1500 patients with a first large myocardial infarction allowing us, in a second step, to identify susceptibility genes for the progression of patients towards chronic heart failure using a candidate gene/candidate pathway approach.
