Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK.
Objectives: Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (P-PCI) is the preferred reperfusion option in ST-elevation myocardial infarction, but its benefits become attenuated as time to its potential delivery becomes prolonged. Based on the STrategic Reperfusion Early After Myocardial Infarction trial, we assessed the impact of increasing time delay on outcomes in patients randomised to a pharmacoinvasive strategy (PI) or P-PCI.
Methods: Thirty-day clinical outcomes were examined according to PCI-related delay (P-RD).
