Abstract

Background: Despite the crucial role of Chest pain centers (CPCs) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) management, China's mortality rate for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has remained stagnant. This study evaluates the influence of CPC quality control indicators on mortality risk in STEMI patients receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) during the COVID-19 pandemic.<br />Methods: A cohort of 664 consecutive STEMI patients undergoing PPCI from 2020 to 2022 was analyzed using Cox proportional hazards regression models. The cohort was stratified by Killip classification at admission (Class 1: n  = 402, Class ≥2: n  = 262).<br />Results: At a median follow-up of 17 months, 35 deaths were recorded. In Class ≥2, longer door-to-balloon (D-to-B) time, PCI informed consent time, catheterization laboratory activation time, and diagnosis-to-loading dose dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) time were associated with increased mortality risk. In Class 1, consultation time (notice to arrival) under 10 min reduced death risk. In Class ≥2, PCI informed consent time under 20 min decreased mortality risk.<br />Conclusion: CPC quality control metrics affect STEMI mortality based on Killip class. Key factors include time indicators and standardization of CPC management. The study provides guidance for quality care during COVID-19.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.<br /> (© 2024 Zhang, Zeng, Huang, Zhu, Peng, Liu, Luo, Yang and Wu.)
