European Heart Journal. Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy 41564893 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12105/27357 Current guidelines recommend beta-blocker therapy after myocardial infarction (MI) regardless of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, recent trials question their benefit in patients with preserved LVEF. No study has yet compared beta-blocker effects during the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) phase (≤1 year post-MI) vs. the chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) phase (>1 year). In this pre-specified landmark analysis of the REBOOT trial, we evaluated the effect of beta-blocker therapy on outcomes in two post-MI phases: the ACS period (first year; cohort 1, n = 8438) and the CCS period (>1 year, event-free patients with follow-up; cohort 2, n = 7783). The primary endpoint was all-cause death, nonfatal reinfarction, or heart failure hospitalization; secondary endpoints included individual and additional cardiovascular events. Among 623 primary outcome events, 238 occurred in the first year (28.9/1000 patient-years) and 385 thereafter (19.3/1000 patient-years). Secondary prevention use was generally high, but patients with early events had lower prescription rates than those with late events or no events. Beta-blockers were not associated with lower risk of the primary or component outcomes in either phase. A nonsignificant trend towards benefit of beta-blockers appeared during the first year in patients with mildly reduced LVEF (41-49%), whereas in the CCS phase, higher beta-blocker doses were associated with worse outcomes. In invasively treated MI patients with LVEF >40%, beta-blockers did not reduce adverse outcomes in either the ACS or CCS phases. These findings challenge their routine use in this population and support reconsidering current guidelines. Long-term beta-blocker users after MI may be candidates for deprescription. eng Acute coronary syndrome Chronic coronary syndrome Landmark analysis Randomized controlled trial beta blockers Effect of beta blockers in acute and chronic coronary syndromes without reduced ejection fraction: a landmark analysis from the REBOOT trial. research article 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 URL https://repisalud.isciii.es/bitstreams/33e34ad9-d544-48b8-9557-c267d548230f/download File MD5 9914b888f8c70a6bfb31793125b9ea91 784861 application/pdf Effect of beta blockers in acute_Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Pharmacother_2026.pdf
