“…However, we noted high rates of IR in the older group (64%). This finding is consistent with a recent multicentric study that included 3576 STEMI patients older than 75 years, in which 55.4% of patients showed MVD with a rate of IR of 35% . In this sense and with this high rate of IR, the role of performing ischaemia stress test seems to be decisive; however, it is important to highlight that the documentation of ischaemia using functional testing to target revascularization was performed only in 7 (6.3%) MVD‐STEMI patients ≥75 years, despite being a recommendation in current clinical guidelines and in contrast to MVD‐STEMI patients <75 years where ischaemia stress tests were used in more than 25% of the patients.…”

“…Patients aged ≥75 years old with non-STEMI have received special attention in recent years, 13 14 but more rare, and in some cases inconclusive, are the studies in patients with STEMI, particularly assessing the use of P-PCI. 15 If we take into account the important Spanish multicentre studies published in the first decade of this century, only the TRIANA 16 clinical trial and the ESTROFA 17 registry included patients aged >75 years old who presented with STEMI and in whom P-PCI was performed. TRIANA showed a trend towards better survival when P-PCI was used compared with fibrinolysis, and ESTROFA described that elderly STEMI patients had a high prevalence of renal failure and multivessel disease.…”

“…According to current guidelines, primary PCI performed <120 min since the first medical contact is the treatment of choice, irrespective of age. PCI is superior to fibrinolysis in reducing mortality, reinfarction, or stroke [ 18 ]. It is recommended to use radial access and stenting with new-generation drug-eluting stents, since this strategy is associated with fewer events [ 18 , 19 ].…”

“…PCI is superior to fibrinolysis in reducing mortality, reinfarction, or stroke [ 18 ]. It is recommended to use radial access and stenting with new-generation drug-eluting stents, since this strategy is associated with fewer events [ 18 , 19 ]. Otherwise, and in the absence of contraindications, fibrinolytic therapy is recommended, always within the first 12 h since symptom onset, and providing the highest benefit when administered within the first two hours.…”
