Why the study?
Does the timing of primary coronary intervention affect mortality in patients with first STEMI?
Does the timing of primary coronary intervention affect mortality in patients with first STEMI?
Primary PCI performed within 6 hours of symptom onset in STEMI patients is associated with significantly lower 6-month mortality compared to later interventions.
Supports primary PCI within 6h in STEMI for lower mortality; leaves open randomized confirmation of timing thresholds.
