چکیده    Background-metropolitan versus nonmetropolitan status and area median income may independently affect care for and outcomes of acute coronary syndromes. we sought to determine whether location of care modifies the association among area income,receipt of cardiac catheterization,and mortality following an acute coronary syndrome in a universal health care system. methods and results-we studied a cohort of 14 012 acute coronary syndrome patients admitted to cardiology services between april 18,2004,and december 31,2011,in southern alberta,canada. we used multivariable logistic regression to determine the odds of cardiac catheterization within 1 day and 7 days of admission and the odds of 30-day and 1-year mortality according to area median household income quintile for patients presenting at metropolitan and nonmetropolitan hospitals. in models adjusting for area income,patients who presented at nonmetropolitan facilities had lower adjusted odds of receiving cardiac catheterization within 1 day of admission (odds ratio 0.22,95% ci 0.11-0.46,p<0.001). among nonmetropolitan patients,when examined by socioeconomic status,each incremental decrease in income quintile was associated with 10% lower adjusted odds of receiving cardiac catheterization within 7 days (p<0.001) and 24% higher adjusted odds of 30-day mortality (p=0.008) but no significant difference for 1-year mortality (p=0.12). there were no differences in adjusted mortality among metropolitan patients. conclusion- within a universal health care system,the association among area income and receipt of cardiac catheterization and 30-day mortality differed depending on the location of initial medical care for acute coronary syndromes. care protocols are required to improve access to care and outcomes in patients from low-income nonmetropolitan communities. © 2016 the authors. published on behalf of the american heart association,inc.
