Abstract
A double-blind study comparing verapamil with placebo was conducted in 16 Danish medical departments of internal medicine with coronary care units (CCU). All patients below 75 years of age admitted to the CCU with a suspicion of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were evaluated. Of 7415 patients, 3917 were excluded at admission because of heart failure, heart block, other severely disabling diseases, or treatment with beta-blockers or Ca + +-antagonists.
