Abstract

From a prospective, multicenter study of 2,082 patients with acute myocardial infarctions who underwent primary angioplasty, the outcomes of patients presenting during peak hours were compared with those presenting during off-peak hours (weeknights from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. and weekends). Despite an additional 21-minute mean delay from hospital arrival to reperfusion, patients who underwent primary angioplasty during off-peak hours achieved similar rates of Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction grade 3 flow, 30-day and 1-year mortality, and improvement in ejection fraction and regional wall motion as those presenting on weekdays.
