Abstract

PPCI is the recommended treatment strategy over fibrinolytic for treatment of STEMI. However, majority of hospitals offer only a LPPCI service or fibrinolytic strategy for STEMI. TIT is associated with clinical outcomes for both treatment strategies. At a single public access tertiary cardiology centre (SPATCC) covering a large geographical area, a LPPCI service is provided.
