Comparative effectiveness of angiotensin II receptor blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in older nursing home residents after myocardial infarction: a retrospective cohort study.
Evidence regarding differences in outcomes between angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) among older nursing home (NH) residents after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is limited. The purpose of this study was to estimate the post-AMI effects of ARBs versus ACEIs on mortality, rehospitalization, and functional decline outcomes in this important population.
