Real-world patients with acute myocardial infarction in Italian CCUs are older than trial populations and show divergent short-term mortality trends for STEMI and NSTEMI compared to expectations.
Patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted to the Italian CCUs, are older than those represented in clinical trials. A high proportion of these cases has the chance to receive early reperfusion therapy. Short-term mortality is lower than expected for patients with STEMI, but higher than reported for NSTEMI.
