Objective: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the leading causes of death; however, updated data regarding clinical presentation and current management are missing in Greece. This study aimed to prospectively record the demographic and clinical characteristics of a representative sample of patients suffering from AMI, their management, and short-term outcomes. Methods: ILIAKTIS is a national, prospective, multicenter, noninterventional study conducted under the auspices of Hellenic Society of Cardiology (HCS) and the European Initiative Stent - Save a Life. From 1st April 2020 to 30th June 2020, consecutive adult patients with STEMI or NSTEMI were enrolled in the 50 participating hospitals, appropriately selected to match the geographical and population distribution in the Greek territory. Results: In total, 1862 patients (mean age: 64.2 ± 13.2 yrs.; 77.2% males) with AMI were enrolled. More patients presented with NSTEMI (56.8%) than with STEMI (43.2%). Primary PCI (pPCI) was the preferable treatment option for STEMI patients in PCI-hospitals (76.9% vs. 39.9% for non-PCI, p
