Objectives. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the importance of time to reperfusion for outcomes after primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction.Background. Survival benefit of thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction is strongly dependent on time to treatment. Recent observations suggest that time to treatment may be less important for survival with primary angioplasty.Methods. Consecutive patients (n = 1,352) with acute myocardial infarction treated with primary angioplasty were followed for up to 13 years. Paired acute and follow-up ejection fraction data were obtained at cardiac catheterization in 606 patients.Results. Reperfusion was achieved within 2 h in 164 patients (12%), Thirty day mortality was lowest with early reperfusion (4.3% at 6 h). Thirty-day-plus late cardiac mortality was also lowest with early reperfusion (9.1% at 6 h). Improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction was greatest in the early reperfusion group and relatively modest after 2 h (6.9% at
