Abstract

This retrospective study assessed the outcome of primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction performed during the "off" hours (nights and weekends) or during working hours in 288 consecutive patients. The times to admission and reperfusion, as well as the in-hospital outcomes, were similar in the 2 groups.
