Clinical impact of an inter-hospital transfer strategy in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary angioplasty: the Emilia-Romagna ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction network

Abstract

This study, concerning an established STEMI regional network, suggests that a strategy of inter-hospital transfer for p-PCI, when supported by an organized system of care, may be applied with rapid reperfusion times and favourable short- and long-term clinical outcomes.
