Abstract

Background & Aims: ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (AMI) with ST- segment elevation in ECG is the most lethal form of the coronary syndrome that clot formation on the athero-sclerotic plaque has an important role in its pathophysiology. Therefore, reperfusion therapies such as STREPTOKINASE (SK) infusion with the shortest possible door- to- needle time was showed to result in a significant reduction in mortality and morbidity. This study is done in heart center of Taleghani- hospital of Urmia for assessment and improvement of Door- to- Needle Time in AMI patients.Materials & Methods: In a descriptive and cross- sectional study, 108 patients with STEMI and injection of SK were considered but only 93 patients were selected (the first half of 1381). Information of the patients were provided on a special sheets (check list) after interviews of patients by nurses and interns. Comparison of mean times was performed by student- T- test and one way variance analysis. Results: From 93 patients, 77 (82.7%) were male and 16 (17.3%) were female. Average Age of patients was 56.5 years. The mean time of the door to needle time was 89.25±9.75 minutes. This mean time for, male patients was 86.5±92.6 minutes and for female patients was 109.2±13.5 minutes. Statistical difference was significant between the two sex groups. (p<0.0001).Mean time for referral patients was 86±10.74 minutes and for non- referral patients was (96.75±16) minutes. Statistical difference was significant for these two groups (p<0.0001).Discussion: This study showed that the mean time of Door- To- Needle Time in our study was about 3 times more than goal time (≤30 minutes). This time in the female patients, old patients and non-referral patients were more than. Male patients, younger patients and referral patients, respectively. Different factors are responsible for Door-To- Needle Time prolongation such as: hospital personnel's, physicians, patients, environmental conditions, physical and the hospital statues and the some others factors.
