Note
1 * ACC defines DTB as the time from first medical contact (FMC) to first establishment of reperfusion with an interventional device; the preferred term is “FMC-to-device time.” FMC is the time of on-scene arrival of emergency medical service, or the time of hospital arrival in case the patient transports himself. First establishment of reperfusion corresponds to the first balloon inflation or thrombectomy that successfully re-establishes coronary flow. Note that the term DTB is not used in ESC guidelines: “STEMI diagnosis-to-wire crossing” is used instead.
