Decoding the “Pain-to-Door” interval using psychological, medical, and demographic factors: A multi-center study
Our findings demonstrate that personal, social, and economical characteristics play a pivotal role in determining patients' pain-to-door time duration. Screening high-risk individuals in terms of the factors that tend to increase the pain-to-door time alongside educating people and healthcare providers on the importance of this interval and its contributing factors must be a priority considering the devastating burden of CVDs.
