Recent declines in average door-to-balloon (D2B) times at the population-level have not been associated with decreases in mortality. This study investigated this seemingly paradoxical observation by evaluating individual and population-level components of the association simultaneously. Our hypothesis was that the changing population of patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) contributed to secular trends toward an increasing mortality risk, despite consistently lower mortality among individual patients with shorter D2B times. This was a retrospective study of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients who underwent pPCI between January 2005 and December 2011 in the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) CathPCI Registry. Multilevel models were constructed to evaluate the relationship between D2B time and in-hospital and 6-month mortality, including both individual and population-level components of this association after adjusting for patient and procedural factors. 423 hospitals reported data on 150,116 procedures with a 55.4% increase in the number of patients undergoing pPCI between the first and last years of this period at these facilities, as well as numerous changes in patient and procedural factors. Annual D2B times decreased significantly from a median of 86 minutes in 2005 to 63 minutes in 2011 (p<0.001) with a concurrent rise in risk-adjusted in-hospital mortality (4.7% to 5.3%; p=0.06) and risk-adjusted 6-month mortality (12.9% to 14.4%; p=0.001). In multilevel models, shorter patient-specific D2B times were consistently associated at the individual-level with lower in-hospital mortality (adjusted OR for each 10-min decrease, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.91 to 0.93; p<0.001) and 6-month mortality (adjusted OR for each 10-min decrease, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.93 to 0.95; p<0.001). In contrast, risk-adjusted in-hospital and 6-month mortality at the population-level, independent of patient-specific D2B times, rose in the growing and changing population of patients undergoing pPCI during the study period. Shorter patient-specific D2B times were consistently correlated with lower mortality within years, while secular trends suggest increased mortality risk over time in the pPCI population. The lack of association of annual D2B time and changes in mortality at the population-level should not be interpreted as an indication of its individual-level relationship in STEMI patients, but more likely reflects higher-risk patients undergoing pPCI in later years.
