[An independent observatory in Vend ée on ST-elevated acute myocardial infarction (the OVISCA Register). A Departmental evaluation of demographic trends, mortality and delays before treatment].

CONCLUSIONS: In vendee, from 2011 to 2016, hospital and 6-month mortality of STEMI trend to decrease non-significantly. The door to balloon time decreased, although emergency call-out rates and delays did not. Considerable efforts are still required with respect to patient information and education. Our registry offers an excellent tool to improve practices, the aim being to ensure its integration in the CRAC-France PCI registry.
