Hearts too good to die: an evaluation of coronary care.

A S Dixon.   

Abstract

Intensive coronary care has become the standard treatment for acute myocardial infarction, and no self-respecting hospital would be without its coronary care unit. However, literature review to evaluate the contribution of coronary care shows that its promise may have been overstated and its benefits overestimated.
