Time to Treatment and Three-Year Mortality After Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction—a DANish Trial in Acute Myocardial Infarction-2 (DANAMI-2) Substudy
In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI), early reperfusion is believed to improve left ventricular systolic function and reduce mortality; however, long-term (>1 year) data are sparse. In the DANish Trial in Acute...

Zusammenfassung: | In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI), early reperfusion is believed to improve left ventricular systolic function and reduce mortality; however, long-term (>1 year) data are sparse. In the DANish Trial in Acute Myocardial Infarction-2 (DANAMI-2) study, 686 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction were treated with pPCI. Long-term mortality was obtained during 3 years of follow-up. We classified the patients according to the symptom-to-balloon time ( |
