Abstract

Objective To investigate the effect of spironolactone on arrhythmias in patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods 93 AMI cases were randomly divided into spironolactone group(n=49),and routine treatment group(n=44).All patients were examined by halter on the 1st week,3rd and 6th month.Results After 6-month intervention,the spironolactone group had a lowered ventricular arrhythmias compared with control group(P0.05).Conclusion These findings indicate that in patients with AMI,spironolactone combined with routine treatment can prevent ventricular arrhythmias.
