Prior studies have shown that impaired endogenous fibrinolysis is a novel, independent cardiovascular risk factor in patients with myocardial infarction and there is currently no known chronic treatment to enhance endogenous fibrinolysis. To date, no therapies have been able to sufficiently reduce Lp(a) and therefore it was considered to be a non-modifiable cardiovascular risk factor. New data, however, has shown that PCSK9 inhibitors and inclisiran (medication that you have been deemed eligible for in order to help further reduce your cholesterol levels) to reduce Lp(a) levels by approximately 20-25%. The aim of this study to is to assess: 1. if there is an association between raised Lp(a) level in blood and the effectiveness of endogenous fibrinolysis (lysis time). 2. whether lowering Lp(a) with PCSK9i or inclisiran can enhance endogenous fibrinolysis
