BackgroundPrimary angioplasty has been shown to be superior to thrombolysis. However, previous reports have shown a negative impact of longer time-to-treatment on myocardial perfusion and survival even with mechanical reperfusion. However, these deleterious effects might potentially be overcome by an extensive use of glycoprotein (Gp) IIb-IIIa inhibitors. Thus, the aim of the current study was to evaluate the prognostic role of the interval from symptoms onset to reperfusion in a large cohort of patients undergoing primary angioplasty with Gp IIb-IIIa inhibitors.MethodsOur population is represented by 1560 patients undergoing primary angioplasty for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) included in the EGYPT (Early Glycoprotein IIb-IIIa Inhibitors in Primary Angiography) database. Myocardial perfusion was evaluated by angiography or ST-segment resolution, whereas infarct size was estimated by using peak creatine kinase and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB). Follow-up data were collected between 30 days and 1 year after primary angioplasty.ResultsTime-to-treatment was significantly associated with age and female sex, diabetes and previous myocardial infarction (MI), but inversely related to smoking. Time-to-treatment affected the rate of postprocedural thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 3 flow (P
