This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a treatment called low-level tragus stimulation (LLTS) — a gentle electrical stimulation of a small part of your outer ear — to see if it can help your heart recover after a severe heart attack. Researchers will use a small device placed on the ear to deliver this stimulation and compare it to a placebo device (a fake device that doesn't deliver any stimulation) to see if the real treatment improves how well your heart pumps and works.
After a severe heart attack, the heart muscle can be permanently damaged, affecting how well it pumps blood to your body. Doctors are looking for new ways to reduce this damage and help the heart heal better during the critical recovery period.

You will be randomly assigned to receive either the active ear stimulation device or a placebo device placed on your ear after your emergency heart procedure. Both groups will have heart ultrasound images taken before and after the treatment to measure how well your heart is recovering. The study involves standard heart monitoring and imaging that doctors normally do after a heart attack, with the addition of the ear stimulation device.
