Reperfusion therapy is the cornerstone in management of STEMI. This study was designed to evaluate both In-hospital and 30 days outcome in patients with STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) versus fibrinolysis. This prospective, controlled, study included 140 patients with STEMI who were eligible for reperfusion therapy. In hospital and 30 days major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were reported and head to head comparison was done between PPCI versus fibrinolysis. All-cause mortality was reported in 5% of patients (10% versus 0% in fibrinolysis and PPCI respectively, p=0.07), recurrence of ischemic symptoms was reported in 18% of patients (30% versus 7% in fibrinolysis and PPCI respectively, P =0.02), heart failure was evident in 22% of patients (33% versus 10% in fibrinolysis and PPCI respectively, P =0.02). PPCI is safe and effective treatment option for patients with STEMI.
