| Core Tip |
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected every aspect of healthcare and has created multiple challenges in treatment of time sensitive conditions like ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We aimed to assess the behavior of presentation and outcomes of all the STEMI admissions at our facility between March 16, 2020 and August 31, 2020. We found a significantly delay from symptom onset to first medical contact in the COVID-19 group which likely resulted in significantly higher in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and MACE at 14 d in this cohort. |
