Popis: SummaryBackgroundTime from hospital arrival to reperfusion in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been predictive of in-hospital mortality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between symptom-onset-to-balloon time and long-term mortality in patients with STEMI in the drug-eluting stent (DES) era.MethodsA series of 393 patients with STEMI treated with DES from 2005 to 2007 was stratified according to risk profile and preprocedural Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade, and clinical, angiographic, and follow-up data were collected.ResultsA total of 98 (24.9%) low-risk patients and 295 (75.1%) non-low-risk patients were identified. Three-year mortality rate was 3.1% for low-risk patients and 10.2% for non-low-risk patients (p=0.034), respectively; however it did not differ according to symptom-onset-to-balloon time in either low-risk (p=0.333) or non-low-risk patients (p=0.881). Similarly, symptom-onset-to-balloon time and mortality were not related to preprocedural TIMI flow (p=0.474 for TIMI 0–1; p=0.428 for TIMI 2–3). In multivariate analysis, final TIMI flow 0–2, systolic blood pressure
