Quality of care for patients with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction before COVID-19 pandemic in Cuba: review of 17 reports with 7823 patients.

Background: In Cuba, there is neither a registry of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), nor are analysis of performance measures widely reported.

Objective: A review of Cuban studies of patients with STEMI was carried out to describe quality of medical care.

Methods: Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, Scopus and SciELO, as well as archives of national journals, were all searched for articles on STEMI in Cuba, from 2000 to March 2020.

A collaborative approach to develop indicators for quality of care for ST segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in networks without coronary intervention: A position paper.

Background: Data about performance measures (PM) in patients with ST segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) in low- and middle-income countries is really scarce. One of the reasons is the lack of appropriate measures for these scenarios where coronary intervention is not the standard treatment.

Objective: This study aimed to develop a set of PM and quality markers for patients with STEMI in these countries.

New model predicts in-hospital complications in myocardial infarction.

Introduction And Objectives: Ischemic cardiopathy constitutes the leading cause of death worldwide. Our aim was to evaluate the prognostic capacity of the leukoglycemic index as well as to create a predictive model of in-hospital complications in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction.

Materials And Methods: This was a multicentral and cohort study, which included patients inserted in the Cuban Registry of acute myocardial infarction.

Triglyceride-glucose index impact on in-hospital mortality in acute myocardial infarction. Results from the RECUIMA multicenter registry.

Introduction: The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is considered a new marker of insulin resistance, and is associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective: To evaluate the capability of TyG index to predict in-hospital -mortality in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

Methods: Multicenter cohort study that enrolled 1123 patients included in the Cuban Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction between January 2018 and June 2021.

Sudden intra-hospital death after acute myocardial infarction in Cuba in the last three years. Analysis of institutional records.

Objetivo: Analizar el comportamiento de posibles causas predisponentes de muerte súbita (MS) intrahospitalaria luego de un infarto agudo de miocardio (IMA) en registros cubanos.

Material Y MÉtodo: Se realizó una búsqueda de registros clínicos de pacientes con IMA en Cuba en las bases de datos de revistas nacionales, Scientific Library On-line (ScieLO) y Medline. Se priorizaron los artículos publicados desde 2016 para ser incluidos.
