About this study

Vericiguat, a novel soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, reduced the incidence of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for HF in a population of high-risk patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF )who had recently been hospitalized or received intravenous diuretic therapy.Given the increasing incidence of patients with ACS and its challenges posing to life,investigators intend to conduct a prospective observational study. Investigators choose several meaningful endpoints including the time of cardiovascular death or heart failure(HF) hospitalization、inflammatory markers、the value of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)、results of echocardiogram and life quality score.By collecting these datas and work on a group of analysis ,investigators evaluate whether differences exsit in ACS patients with ejection <45% between participants who take vericiguat regularly and those who donot.

  • 3.ejection fraction <45%.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. a composite of death from cardiovascular causes or first hospitalization for heart failure

    Time frame: from baseline to one year

Secondary outcomes

  1. results of echocardiogram

    Time frame: from baseline to one year

    changes in left ventricular ejection fraction during the follow-up

  2. the numerical value of NT-proBNP

    Time frame: from baseline to one year

    an important biomarker of heart failure

  3. life quality score

    Time frame: from baseline to one year

    Investigators choose Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire(KCCQ) to evaluate life quality of participants.
