What are the effects of Beta Blockers on patients with Myocardial Infarction?
A systematic review of studies found that beta blockers have been shown to be beneficial in reducing overall mortality and reinfarction in patients with myocardial infarction. Additionally, using beta blockers has been found to reduce the risk of stroke and other vascular events. Studies have also found that the use of beta blockers in combination with fibrinolytic therapy was associated with improved outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
