Studies have demonstrated that the early initiation of ACEI/ARB to patients with acute myocardial infarction is beneficial, especially in patients combined with reduced LVEF or mild-moderate heart failure. Therefore, ACEI/ARB is a traditional treatment for patients post-infarction. Recent clinical trials have demonstrated that Sacubitril/Valsartan is more beneficial than Ramipril to patients post-PCI.Besides, Sacubitril/Valsartan is also effective for essential hypertension.This study aims to assess the effect of Sacubitril/Valsartan on short-term prognosis in hypertensive patients with acute myocardial infarction compared against Valsartan.
