Conclusions
• In the real world setting, patients with the
highest predicted risk mortality are least likely to
be transferred early and do not undergo risk
stratification with guideline-recomended
diagnostic procedures.
• A running STEMI inter-hospital network is not
enough to improve a right application of
guidelines for NSTEMI (in particular for patients
first admitted to the community Hospital
