Experience from a regional percutaneous coronary intervention center: Aiming to assess and improve quality of care Open
A significant difference between state-of-the-art targets and reality was found, depending on the place of FMC, with the worst delays in non-PCI centers. Patient delay, ECG delay, FMC to diagnosis and logistic delay are identified as key a…

Three-dimensional Real-time Triplane versus Biplane Simpson for left ventricular ejection fraction estimation after ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Open
Purpose : The Biplane Simpson (BPS) remains the recommended 2-dimensional method to assess left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, it has known limitations that may be overcome with 3D real-time triplane (RTTP), for instance, o…
