KEY MESSAGE
(1) Epidemiology of STEMI: Although the rate of mortality associated with ischaemic heart disease have reduced in
Europe over the last few decades, this is still the single most common cause of death worldwide. The relative
incidences of STEMI and NSTEMI are decreasing and increasing, respectively. Despite the decline in acute and
long-term death associated with STEMI, in parallel with the widespread use of reperfusion, mortality remains
substantial. The in-hospital mortality rates of unselected patients with STEMI in national European registries vary
between 4–12%.
(2) Gender aspects:Women tend to receive reperfusion therapy and other evidence-based treatments less
frequently and/or in a delayed way than men. It is important to highlight that women and men receive equal benefit
from a reperfusion and other STEMI related therapies, and so both genders must be managed equally.
(3) ECG and STEMI diagnosis: In some cases, patients may have coronary artery occlusion/global ischaemia in
the absence of characteristic ST elevation (e.g. bundle branch block, ventricular pacing, hyperacute T-waves,
isolated ST-depression in anterior leads, and/or universal ST depression with ST-elevation in aVR). In patients with
the mentioned ECG changes and clinical presentation compatible with ongoing myocardial ischaemia, a primary
PCI strategy (i.e. urgent angiography and PCI if indicated) should be followed.
(4) Reperfusion strategy selection: STEMI diagnosis (defined as the time at which the ECG of a patient with
ischaemic symptoms is interpreted as presenting ST-segment elevation or equivalent) is the time zero in the
reperfusion strategy clock. STEMI patients should undergo a primary PCI strategy unless the anticipated absolute
time from STEMI diagnosis to PCI-mediated reperfusion is > 120 min, when fibrinolysis should be initiated
immediately (i.e. within 10 min of STEMI diagnosis).
(5) STEMI management networks: Coordination between EMS andhospitals with common written protocols is at
the centre of STEMI management. EMS should transfer patients to 24/7 highvolume PCI centres irrespective of
whether the primary treatment strategy is PCI or pre-hospital fibrinolysis. EMS should always alert the PCI centre
immediately after selection of the reperfusion strategy.Patient transfer to the PCI centre should bypass the
emergency

(6) Cardiac arrest and reperfusion strategy: Patients with ST-elevation on post-resuscitation ECG
should undergo a primary PCI strategy.In cases without ST-segment elevation on post-
resuscitation ECG but with a high suspicion of ongoing myocardial ischaemia, urgent angiography
should be done within 2 h after a quick evaluation to exclude non-coronary causes. In all cases,
the decision to perform urgent coronary angiography should take into account factors associated
with poor neurological outcome.
(7) Technical aspects during primary PCI: Routine radial access and routine DES implant is the
standard of care during primary PCI. Routine thrombus aspiration or deferred stenting are
contraindicated.
(8) Management of non-IRA lesions: Treatment of severe stenosis(evaluated either by
angiography or FFR) should be considered before hospital discharge (either immediately during
the index PCI
or staged at a later time). In cardiogenic shock, non-IRA PCI should be considered during the
index procedure.
(9) Antithrombotic therapy: Anticoagulants and DAPT are the cornerstone of the pharmacological
approach in the acute phase of STEMI. Primary PCI: unfractionated heparin (enoxaparin and
bivalirudin may be alternative), and loading dose of aspirin and prasugrel/ticagrelor. Fibrinolysis:
enoxaparin (unfractionated heparin may be alternative), and loading dose of aspirin and
clopidogrel.Maintenance therapy in the majority of patients is based on one year DAPT in the form
of aspirin plus prasugrel/ticagrelor.
(10) Early care: After reperfusion therapy, patients should be monitored for at least 24 h. Early
ambulation and early discharge are thebest option in uncomplicated patients. Consequently, time
for implementing secondary prevention is limited highlighting the importance of close collaboration
![Page 55: 2017 ESC guidelines for the management of acute](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051710/5a65fe287f8b9ade0e8b45e5/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
(11) Special patient subsets: Patients taking oral anticoagulants with renal insufficiency and/or the elderly represent a challenge in terms of optimal antithrombotic therapy. Special attention should be paid to dose adjustment of some pharmacological strategies in these subsets. Patients with diabetes and those not undergoing reperfusion represent another subset of patients that require additional attention.
(12) Imaging in STEMI: Non-invasive imaging is very important for the acute and long-term management of STEMI patients.
(13) MINOCA: A sizeable proportion of STEMI patients do not present significant coronary artery stenosis on urgent angiography. It is important to perform additional diagnostic tests in these patients to identify the aetiology and tailor appropriate therapy, which may
be different fromtypical STEMI.
(14) Quality indicators: In some cases, there is a gap between optimal guideline-based treatment and actual care of STEMI patients. In order to reduce this gap, it is important to measure established quality indicators to audit practice and improve outcomes in reallife.The use of well-defined and validated quality indicators to measure and improve STEMI care is recommended.
