Objective: The objective of the study was to analyze the differences between survivors and non-survivors with non-reperfused ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and to identify the predictors of in-hospital mortality.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study included non-reperfused STEMI patients from October 2005 to August 2020. Patients were classified into survivors and non-survivors. We compared patient characteristics, treatments, and outcomes among the groups and identified factors associated with in-hospital mortality.
Results: We included 2442 patients with non-reperfused STEMI and we found a mortality of 12.7% versus 7.2% in reperfused STEMI. The main reason for non-reperfusion was delayed presentation (96.1%). Non-survivors were older, more often women, and had diabetes, hypertension, or atrial fibrillation. The left main coronary disease was more frequent in non-survivors as well as three-vessel disease. Non-survivors developed more in-hospital heart failure, reinfarction, atrioventricular block, bleeding, stroke, and death. The main predictors for in-hospital mortality were renal dysfunction (HR 3.41), systolic blood pressure < 100 mmHg (HR 2.26), and left ventricle ejection fraction < 40% (HR 1.97).
Conclusion: Mortality and adverse outcomes occur more frequently in non-reperfused STEMI. Non-survivors tend to be older, with more comorbidities, and have more adverse in-hospital outcomes.

Objective: To quantify by cardiovascular magnetic resonance the salvaged myocardium in the myocardium supplied by the infarct-related artery in reperfused and non-reperfused patients with a first ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Patients And Method: Twenty-five patients with a first STEMI (non-reperfused, ten patients; thrombolysis, ten patients; primary angioplasty, five patients) underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging 3 to 6 days after coronary angiography. Myocardial salvage and myocardial salvage index were quantified.

Background: ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) systems of care have reduced inter-hospital transfer times and facilitated timely reperfusion goals. Helicopters may be an option when land transportation is not feasible; however, the safety of air transport in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a factor to consider.
Objetives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of helicopter transport for patients with ACS.

Objective: To assess the association between coronary collateral circulation and ventricular contractile function in patients with non-reperfused acute myocardial infarction.
Method: A retrospective and descriptive clinical study was conducted on patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at a reference cardiovascular center, from January 2006 to December 2022. Coronary angiographies and echocardiograms were reviewed to evaluate coronary collateral circulation and ventricular function, respectively.

Purpose: While pharmacoinvasive strategy (PI) is a safe and effective approach whenever access to primary percutaneous intervention (pPCI) is limited, data on each strategy's economic cost and impact on in-hospital stay are scarce. The objective is to compare the cost-effectiveness of a PI with that of pPCI for the treatment of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a Latin-American country.
Patients And Methods: A total of 1747 patients were included, of whom 470 (26.
