✦ Synopsis

We studied 89 patients with first time myocardial infarction and treated with primary PCI. There was only a weak correlation between ischemia duration and final myocardial scar size measured with ceMRI six weeks later. Other factors like anterior infarction, a patent artery pre-PCI and effects of reperfusion injury may have had greater influence on infarct size than time-totreatment per se.
