Abstract

Background and purpose: 

The time of onset of chest pain was considered as the time of onset of the acute myocardial infarction. Acute myocardial infarction was diagnosed using the standard 12 lead electrocardiogram and cardiac enzyme (World Health Organization criteria). The time from onset of myocardial infarction to treatment was separated into early (<12 h) or late (>12 h); this was the time from initial onset of pain to the time when the patient received treatment. Rapid restoration of patency of the infarct-related artery is the key to preserving myocardium and improving survival in acute myocardial infarction, increase the quality of life of patients, and decrease health expenditure in many countries 

In-hospital stroke is associated with slower access to thrombolysis than community-occurring stroke. It has been suggested that lack of knowledge regarding appropriate stroke response among hospital staff may contribute to delays in referral, assessment, and treatment of in-hospital stroke.
