Summary

In patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) a subset with low risk for late complications can be identified. Early discharge (\<72h) of these patients can compromise initiation of prophylaxis, information and other investigations. The researchers want to investigate prospectively whether early discharge compared to regular care have comparable patient centered outcomes at 30 days follow-up.
