BACKGROUND The relationship of the ischemic time to primary angioplasty and the quality of myocardial reperfusion according to infarcted territory among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is unclear. METHODS This study consisted of 140 patients with STEMI within 12 h from the symptom onset and undergoing a primary angioplasty from the Protection of Distal Embolization in High-Risk Patients with Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Trial. ST-segment resolution (STR) at 60 min was analyzed by an independent corelab using continuous ST monitoring. Patients were divided according to anterior (n=74) and nonanterior (n=64) locations and according to ischemic time in quartiles (
