ABSTRACT
Current clinical practice regarding surveillance period and length of hospital stay after an ST elevation myocardial infarction is very variable among different countries and hospitals. In general, there has been a significant reduction in length of stay overall, which is mainly due to the increasing use of primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Length of stay after a ST elevation myocardial infaction, which is a rather common event, has a major impact on health care costs and patients' quality of life. We try to evaluate how far we could push the limits.
