One study has shown that beta-blockers, drugs used to treat various cardiac pathologies, do not provide any benefit to patients who have had an uncomplicated myocardial infarction, i.e., with intact heart contractile function. The results represent a paradigm shift in the treatment of these patients, modifying a medical practice that has been in force for more than 40 years.
