Abstract
We recently audited our hospital's door-to-balloon times. In the years between 2011 and 2014 we achieved a door-to-balloon time of less than 90 mins in 81% of cases ( Figure 1). The overall median time was 65 mins. While the review showed we are meeting recommended targets we also wonder whether we are selling ourselves short [ 1 ].
