Brief Summary
The primary aim is to conduct a prospective observational cohort study to analyze the incidence of serious arrhythmic events that occur within 14 days after hospital discharge in patients who had been hospitalized for cardiac arrest caused by acute myocardial infarction. Cardiac arrythmias following hospital dischagre will be detected with Philips ePatch® 2.0 for 14 days.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Incidence of serious cardiac arrythmias

Cardiac arrythmias within 14 days after hospital discharge from index hospital stay following cardiac arrest event.
Secondary Outcomes (6)
Incidence of sinus arrest, atrial fibrillation, higher degree AV-block, ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation
Cardiac arrythmias within 14 days after hospital discharge from index hospital stay following cardiac arrest event.
All-cause mortality
Mortality due to any cause within 14 days after hospital discharge from index hospital stay following cardiac arrest event.
Cardiovascular mortality
Mortality due to a cardiavascular cause within 14 days after hospital discharge from index hospital stay following cardiac arrest event.
Stroke
Stroke within 14 days after hospital discharge from index hospital stay following cardiac arrest event.
Systemic arterial thromboembolism

- +1 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Philips ePatch® 2.0
Patients who are discharged from the hospital with ECG patch (Philips ePatch® 2.0).
Interventions
The ECG patch will be put on the patients chest to monitor cardiac activity for a total time period of 14 days after cardiac arrest.
Eligibility Criteria
We plan to include adult patients who survived cardiac arrest caused by acute myocardial infarction.
You may qualify if:
- Age: 18-80 years
- Cardiac arrest due to acute myocardial infarction
- Cardiac arrest ≤10 days ago
- Left-ventricular ejecion fraction at hospital discharge: 36-50%
- Sinus rhythm at hospital discharge
- Optimal medical therapy
You may not qualify if:
- Non-adult patients
- Cardiac arrest due to another cause other than acute myocardial infarction
- Philips ePatch® 2.0 not applicable
- ICD or pacemaker indication
- Known paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation
- Inability to comply with follow-up- Pregnancy
