We evaluated the effect of a media campaign aimed at reducing delay times in suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on the volume of chest pain patients seen in the emergency department. During the 1st week of the campaign, the mean number of chest pain patients increased from 10.5 per day prior to the start to 25.4. However, the number declined rapidly in subsequent months. The greatest increase was observed in patients with chest pain in whom AMI was not suspected on examination. During the campaign, 4,805 patients with chest pain appeared in the emergency department as compared with 4,407 patients during the same time period prior to its start, an increase of 9%. The number of patients with confirmed AMI increased from 595 to 629 (6%).
我们评估了一项旨在减少疑似急性心肌梗死（AMI）延迟时间的媒体宣传活动对急诊科胸痛患者数量的影响。在宣传活动的第一周，胸痛患者的平均数量从活动开始前每天10.5例增加到25.4例。然而，在随后的几个月里，这个数字迅速下降。在检查时未怀疑为AMI的胸痛患者中观察到最大增幅。在宣传活动期间，急诊科出现了4805例胸痛患者，而在活动开始前的同一时期为4407例患者，增加了9%。确诊为AMI的患者数量从595例增加到629例（6%）。
