Question 5
 

The most recent published data on primary angioplasty was in the annual report for 2009 of the Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project ' How the NHS Manages Heart Attacks' . The following table based on this report shows the hospitals which in 2008/9 provided primary angioplasty at least 10 times for patients suffering heart attack during 2008/9 and the PCT where they are located . I am unable to identify the 24/7 services. It should be noted that this is a specialist service which would not be appropriate to provide in all hospitals and that some primary angioplasty centres may serve more than one PCT.
