Five-year implementation and longitudinal performance of a multidisciplinary acute myocardial infarction program in a middle-income country

Background

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains a leading cause of mortality in low- and middle-income countries, where delayed reperfusion worsens outcomes. Evidence on the long-term operation of multidisciplinary AMI programs in these settings is limited. We aimed to describe the five-year performance of a multidisciplinary AMI program in quality-of-care indicators and clinical outcomes.
