Methods:
We examined 936 STEMI patients from the reperfusion in ST-elevation myocardial infarction in Kuwait (REPERFUSE Kuwait) registry who underwent either primary PCI or pharmacoinvasive reperfusion. A composite outcome was measured based on death, congestive heart failure, reinfarction or stroke prospectively ascertained during hospital stay and up to one-year follow-up.
