ACE and myocardial infarction: After myocardial infarction(MI), cardiac function is graduallydecreased in concert with left ventricular (LV) dilatation, LV wallthinning, and LV chamber geometry expansion and rounding.1 These changes in total, termed LV remodeling,have been associated with the latter stages of progressive heart failure.Pharmacologic treatments applied in this setting include angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB),aldosterone antagonists, diuretics, β-blockers, and antiplatelettherapy.
