About this study

A total of 220 patients (110 per arm) who report moderate alcohol consumption between 1 and 28 standard units (1 standard unit = \~10 grams) per week in the 12 months prior to hospital admission will be planned for randomization, using a 1:1 ratio to pursue moderate alcohol consumption (1 standard unit per day for women and 2 standard units per day for men) or abstinence (except for one drink on predefined/agreed special occasions) for a total duration of 3 months. An echocardiography will be performed at baseline and 3 months to assess changes in systolic cardiac function (LVEF) for the primary endpoint. A core laboratory team blinded to assignment will perform data interpretation.
