Figure 2 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Guidelines for Selecting a Reperfusion Strategy
*Operator experience >75 primary PCI cases per year. Team experience >36 primary PCI cases per year. Applies to fibrin-specific agents. This calculation implies that the estimated delay to the implementation of the invasive strategy is >1 h versus initiation of fibrinolytic therapy immediately with a fibrin-specific agent.
