Abstract
A majority of the population of Kerala had timely access to PCI-capable hospitals. GIS-based mapping of Indian states, in terms of access to STEMI reperfusion, may help devise protocols to achieve seamless transfer of patients to reperfusion-capable hospitals. Such regionalization of STEMI care would enhance organizational synergies to achieve better access to reperfusion, especially in remote areas.
