Thrombolytic medications work by breaking down large blood clots, allowing blood to flow back to the heart and reducing the risk of heart muscle damage. These agents can help prevent a heart attack from progressing to a myocardial infarction, which can be life-threatening. Fibrinolytic drugs are the preferred treatment for STEMI, as they promote reperfusion and restore blood flow when given within 12 hours of symptom onset. A 12- hour window-time for administration of thrombolytic remedy is now extensively accepted. The failure to thrive overview showed that thrombolytic remedy reduced mortality by 14% ( S D 5%) in clients randomized between 7 and 12 hours after the onset of symptoms. Investigators conducted a study to dissect compliance with timing of thrombolytic loading dose within 60 minutes among patients with acute myocardial infarction and its impact on patient outcomes whether the patient becomes stable or unstable. Quantitative approach and Retrospective study design was used.30 samples were selected using purposive sampling technique data collection was started after formal approval from ethical committee, nursing and medical head. Data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistic and it revealed that out of 30 patient, 21 patients received the loading dose within 30 minutes,4 patients received within 31 to 60 minutes and 5 patients received within 2 hours and with record to the patient outcomes 93% patient were stable and 7% were unstable. The study and results revealed that all patients who have received thrombolytic therapy within the first 60 minutes (golden hour) after initial symptom of chest pain had better outcomes, less morbidity and fewer complication, suggesting the need and importance of intervention during the golden hour. In this regard, Apollo Hospitals Bilaspur has been organizing CME’S in peripheral / rural areas to promote patient and doctors’ awareness and in regard to the golden hour and its importance.
