Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

While the clinical management of myocardial infarction has advanced in recent years, its mortality and morbidity are still high, especially in myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock. Clinical management of this condition includes primary percutaneous coronary interventions, mechanical cardiac support devices, intensive care unit management, and optimal medical therapy. Although an increasing amount of clinical research is being published, there is still room for new research into how to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with myocardial infarction.

The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive overview of the advances in the clinical management and future options in myocardial infarction. Therefore, researchers in the field of myocardial infarction are encouraged to submit their findings to this Special Issue as original articles or reviews. All topics associated with the clinical management of myocardial infarction are welcome.

Prof. Dr. Kenichi Sakakura
