Actionable arrhythmias in low-risk patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI): role for continued telemetry beyond 24–48 h
•With contemporary STEMI care, the need for prolonged telemetry for surveillance of an actionable arrhythmia is unclear.•Beyond the first 24-48 hours, the incident rate for an actionable arrhythmia is low.•Traditionally established prognostic variables in STEMI would likely guide triage for longer telemetry durations in STEMI.
