Adjusted mean ischemic time in female vs male STEMI patients. The total adjusted geometric mean ischemic time was calculated for STEMI patients who presented within 12 hours of symptom onset, with no interhospital transfer, and who had both symptom‐to‐door (STD) and door‐to‐balloon (DTB) time available. The adjusted mean STD and DTB times were 7.3 and 17.6 minutes longer, respectively, in women compared with men, giving a total 30‐minute delay in the geometric mean ischemic time. STEMI indicates ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction.
