Survey on Hemodynamics Centers in Latin America – SOLACI, Stent Save a Life! and South American Society of Cardiology Initiative

The treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in Latin America is highly diverse. There are notable differences between countries and even among regions within a single country.

It is clear that the treatment of STEMI is still an unmet need in our region.

SOLACI and the Stent – Save a Life! Initiative in Latin America, along with the South American Society of Cardiology, acknowledge the importance of understanding this diversity and working towards significant improvement. However, we lack precise data on how countries are organized regarding sites where percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) are conducted.

Therefore, we are pleased to invite you to complete a brief survey that will allow us to map sites where PCIs are conducted throughout Latin America.

This will be the first step towards understanding Latin America’s diverse scenarios and generating local working groups to improve this situation in the region.

Your participation is paramount to this initiative. Together, we can make a tangible difference in the treatment of myocardial infarction in Latin America.
