Our research project will perform extra scans and blood tests to see if we can identify underlying heart disease which may benefit from treatment. This treatment will be with commonly used medications, known to be beneficial in the treatment of patients with heart attacks due to a blocked artery. We hope to prevent patients with type 2 myocardial infarction having a future heart attack and prolong their life by improving their medical care.
