Primary percutaneous coronary intervention is currently the treatment of choice for octogenarians presenting with STEMI. The recent literature on this topic has yielded controversial results, even though advances in drug-eluting stents and new types of antithrombotic agents are improving the management of STEMI and postoperative care. In this paper, we review the current status of percutaneous coronary intervention in the elderly with STEMI, including the reasons for their high mortality and morbidity, predictors of mortality, and strategies to improve outcomes.Keywords: octogenarians, percutaneous coronary intervention, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctionGao LHu XLiu YQXue QFeng QZDove Medical PressarticlePercutaneous coronary intervention octogenarians ST segment elevation myocardial infarctionGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 9, Pp 1241-1246 (2014)
