Time to Reperfusion: The Critical Modulator in Thrombolysis and Primary Angioplasty.
TL;DR: Time to reperfusion appears to be the critical modulator in both thrombolysis and primary angioplasty, and a clear relationship exists between higher rates of early reperfusions and lower mortality.

Multimodality reperfusion therapy for acute myocardial infarction
TL;DR: The goal of this "multimodality" approach to AMI management is to minimize time to reperfusion and maximize the percentage of patients who achieve complete arterial patency and myocardial perfusion without bleeding complications.
