Summary

In late December 2019, an emerging disease due to a novel coronavirus (named SARS-CoV-2) rapidly spread in China and outside. France is currently facing the COVID-19 wave with more than 131 863 confirmed cases and almost 25 201 deaths. Systems of care have been reorganized in an effort to preserve hospital bed capacity, resources, and avoid exposure of patients to the hospital environment where COVID-19 may be more prevalent. Therefore, elective procedures of catheterization and programmed hospitalizations have been delayed. However, a significant proportion of procedures within the catheterization laboratory such as ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non ST elevation myocardial infarction or unstable angina are mandatory and cannot be postponed. Surprisingly, invasive cardiologist noticed a drop in STEMI volume without reliable data to confirm this impression. Furthermore, a recent single center report in Hong Kong pointed out longer delays of taking care when compared to patients with STEMI treated with percutaneous intervention the previous year. These data are at major concern because delay in seeking care or not seeking care could have detrimental impact on outcomes.
