Data highlight the importance of improving patient treatment and transport algorithms for STEMI from non-primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) centers and the early administration of newer oral P2Y12 inhibitors, including crushed forms of these agents for faster absorption.

Patients who presented with a non-chest pain (NCP) STEMI had a distinct clinical profile and experienced poorer outcomes and Routine triage ECG could be considered for patients with high-risk factors and non-classical symptoms.

The findings suggest that implantation of BVS in STEMI patients is feasible in this small cohort of highly selected patients, and further evaluation in randomized-controlled trials is needed.

The choice of radial access site in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI is associated with lower local bleeding complications like puncture site hematomas and is an independent predictor of fewer bleedings.

More than one third of US STEMI patients transferred for primary PCI fail to achieve first door-to-device time ⩽120 minutes, despite estimated transfer times <60 minutes, which is related to process variables, comorbidities, and lower annual PCI hospital STEMI volumes.

For patients who are unlikely to receive timely pPCI, pretransfer fibrinolysis, followed by early transfer for angiography, may be a reperfusion option when potential benefits of timely reperfusions outweigh bleeding risk.
