Popis: Aims To assess the adherence to established quality indicators (QIs) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at the hospital-network level and its relation to outcome. Methods and results The data of 7774 STEMI patients admitted to 32 STEMI networks during the period 2014–18 were extracted from the Belgian STEMI database. Five QIs [primary percutaneous coronary intervention use, diagnosis-to-balloon time (DiaTB) Conclusion Among established STEMI networks, the time delay between diagnosis and treatment was the most variable and the most relevant prognostic QI, underscoring the importance of assessing quality of care throughout the whole network.
