SEE PAGE 166 F ibrinolysis remains a cornerstone for the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) when primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is not readily available. Its administration in a pre-hospital setting increases the proportion of patients undergoing rapid reperfusion with resultant improved outcomes compared with in-hospital administration (1). The lo...
