Evolution of REperfusion Strategies and impact on mortality in Old and Very OLD STEMI patients. The RESOVOLD-e-MUST study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The use of myocardial reperfusion-mainly via angioplasty-has increased in our region to over 95%. We wondered whether old and very old patients have benefited from this development.

Methods

Setting: Greater Paris Area (Ile-de-France).

Data

Regional registry, prospective, including since 2003, data from 39 mobile intensive care units performing prehospital treatment of patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (<24 h).

Parameters

Demographic, decision to perform reperfusion and outcome (in-hospital mortality).

Primary endpoint

Reperfusion decision rate by decade over age 70.

Secondary endpoint

Outcome.

Results

We analysed the prehospital management of 27,294 patients. There were 21,311 (78%) men and 5,919 (2
