[Prodromic syndrome and recovery time in acute myocardial infarction].
The presence of prodromic syndrome and the time between the first symptoms and the actual admission to hospital have been considered in a personal series of 644 patients with acute myocardial infarction. The applicability of a systemic thrombolysis protocol has been examined in a subgroup of 108 patients. The high percentage of patients who had prodromic syndrome (46.8%) and of patients who have been admitted in C.C.U. too late (39.2% over the sixth hour) emphasized the need of a sanitary education program in order to get faster admission times of the ischemic patients.
