Introduction: In developing countries, there is a notable scarcity of real-world data on adherence to optimal medical therapy (OMT) and its correlation with major cardiovascular adverse events (MACEs) after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Our study focuses on addressing this gap by evaluating adherence to OMT, examining its influence on the risk of MACEs after STEMI, and assessing subsequent cardiovascular risk factor control in Mexico.
Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study of post-STEMI patients after hospital discharge.
