Abstract
Incidence of MACE was strongly correlated with STB time and STB time was an independent predictor of MACE. We have identified specific subgroups with prolonged STB times (age >70, female gender, diabetes, absence of prehospital activation and presentation to a non-PCI centre). This information should inform future studies and strategies to minimise delays in these subgroups for improved outcomes.
