Impact on mortality after implantation of a network for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction care. The IPHENAMIC study
2020
Abstract Introduction and objectives Little is known about the impact of networks for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) care on the population. The objective of this study was to determine whether the PROGALIAM (Programa Gallego de Atencion al Infarto Agudo de Miocardio) improved survival in northern Galicia. Methods We collected all events coded as STEMI between 2001 and 2013. A total of 6783 patients were identified and divided into 2 groups: pre-PROGALIAM (2001-2005), with 2878 patients, and PROGALIAM (2006-2013), with 3905 patients. Results In the pre-PROGALIAM period, 5-year adjusted mortality was higher both in the total population (HR, 1.22, 95% C I, 1.14–1.29; P Conclusions For patients with STEMI, the creation of PROGALIAM in northern Galicia decreased mortality and increased equity in terms of survival both overall and in each of the areas where it was implanted. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: NCT02501070 ).
