Estratégias para reduzir o tempo porta-balão nos pacientes com infarto agudo do miocárdio

Objective: to identify the available evidence regarding strategies to reduce door-to-balloon time in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) requiring inter-hospital transport to cardiac lab services. Method: an integrative review of the literature using the LILACS and PubMed databases, inclusive of all articles published between January 2005 and March 2015. Of the 21 publications identified, nine were included in the sample. Results: strategies with the best results in reducing door-to-balloon time were: pre-hospital ECG (evidence level III) and early notification of and direct transfer to reference centers (evidence level IV). In studies using these measures, more than 50% of patients were reperfused within 90 minutes or within 60 minutes. Conclusion: Interventions to reduce door-to-balloon time were infrequently applied alone. Multiple coordinated and standardized strategies should be used in all phases for the care of AMI patients.Objetivo: identificar as evidências disponíveis quanto às estratégias para reduzir o tempo porta-balão nos pacientes com infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM) que necessitam de transporte inter-hospitalar para serviços de hemodinâmica. Método: trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura nas bases de dados LILACS e Medline via PubMed no período de janeiro de 2004 a julho de 2014. Das 21 publicações identificadas, nove foram incluídas na amostra. Resultados: as estratégias com melhores resultados na redução do tempo porta-balão foram: eletrocardiograma pré-hospitalar com nível de evidência III, ativação precoce e transferência direta para os centros de hemodinâmica, com nível de evidência IV. Nos estudos que utilizaram essas intervenções, mais de 50% dos pacientes foram reperfundidos em menos de 90 minutos ou com tempo de até 60 minutos. Conclusão: intervenções para reduzir o tempo porta-balão foram pouco aplicadas isoladamente, sendo evidente a necessidade de estratégias conjuntas e padronizadas em todas as etapas do atendimento ao paciente com IAM. Palavras-chave: Guias de Prática Clínica como Assunto; Diretrizes para o Planejamento em Saúde; Transporte de Pacientes; Reperfusão Miocárdica; Infarto do Miocárdio; Síndrome Coronariana Aguda.
