Beta Blockers (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Class I |
"1. β-Blocker therapy should be used in all patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤40%) with heart failure or prior myocardial infarction, unless contraindicated. (Use should be limited to carvedilol, metoprolol succinate, or bisoprolol, which have been shown to reduce mortality.) [2][3] (Level of Evidence: A)" |
"2. β-Blocker therapy should be started and continued for 3 years in all patients with normal left ventricular function who have had myocardial infarction or ACS. [4][5] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
Class IIa |
"1. It is reasonable to continue β-blockers beyond 3 years as chronic therapy in all patients with normal left ventricular function who have had myocardial infarction or ACS. [4][5] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
"2. It is reasonable to give β-blocker therapy in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤40%) without heart failure or prior myocardial infarction. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Class IIb |
"1. β-Blockers may be considered as chronic therapy for all other patients with coronary or other vascular disease. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
