چکیده

Funded by the National Cardiovascular Data Registry of the American College of Cardiology Foundation, an analysis of the CathPCI registry reported unchanged in-hospital mortality (both observed and risk-adjusted mortality) from July 2005 through June 2009 for STEMI despite significant shortened door-to-balloon time from 83 minutes to 67 minutes in America [1]. The authors suggested that additional strategies were needed to reduce mortality.

The Role of Pre-hospital and Hospital Emergency system in Ischemic Time Management of Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients: A Review

According to the latest guidelines, the best intervention to restore blood flow through occluded coronary arteries is angioplasty at a time less than 90 minutes. Delay in timely implementation of reperfusion is one of the key issues in the management of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). In this review study, papers published from 1999-2019 were used to investigate Role of Pre-hospital...

Evaluation of ejection fraction in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

Introduction: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a reperfusion strategy to increase life expectancy and ejection fraction (EF) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. We investigated the effect of location, severity, type of lesion, number and type of vessel involved and time of angioplasty on the increase in EF in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI (P-PCI) a...

Evaluation of delay in Primary PCI in golden time and its relationship with major adverse cardiac events

Background: In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the preferred reperfusion therapy. Timely primary PCI is essential in improving the clinical outcomes of these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors affecting balloon delay in STEMI treated patients by primary PCI and its relationship with ma...

Routine diversion of patients with STEMI to high-volume PCI centres: modelling the financial impact on referral hospitals

OBJECTIVE To quantify possible revenue losses from proposed ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patient diversion policies for small hospitals that lack high-volume percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) capability status (ie, 'STEMI referral hospitals'). BACKGROUND Negative financial impacts on STEMI referral hospitals have been discussed as an important barrier to implementing regi...
