title: [Compliance of extramural hospital treatment and long-term survival status in patients with acute myocardial infarction].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the compliance of extramural hospital treatment and the long-term survival status in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Chongqing.
  
  
  METHODS
  A total of 636 patients with AMI, from grade 3 and first-class hospitals in Chongqing during Jan 2005 and Jan 2009, were enrolled for this study. The patients were followed-up for 5 years to investigate the extramural hospital treatment and influential factors.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A total of 574 patients finished a five-year follow-up, and 180 cases died from cardiac death. The mortality was 31.4%. The poor compliance was a major feature in the pass away patients.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The low treatment compliance is the independent risky factor for 5-year prognosis.
