Figure 3 Mortality rates in clinical trials comparing onsite fibrinolysis (open bars) versus transfer for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (solid bars) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. This figure is based on data presented by Keeley et al. (5). AIR-PAMI = Air Primary Angioplasty in Myocardial Infarction trial (12); DANAMI = Danish Multicenter Randomized Trial on Thrombolytic Therapy Versus Acute Coronary Angioplasty in Acute Myocardial Infarction trial (9); LIMI = Limburg Intervention/MI trial (13); PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention; PRAGUE = Primary Angioplasty After Transport of Patients From General Community Hospitals to Catheterization Units With/Without Emergency Thrombolysis Infusion Trials (10,11).
