Where the hypotheses were well-followed throughout the text, the conclusion ignores the relevance of these factors to the delay experienced by patients in seeking treatment. Instead of developing a correlation between the identified behavior and the subject matter, importance of creating awareness among the general public was the highly emphasized. Furthermore, the responsibility of nurses and government authorities in this regard, was also discussed. Limitations

The study itself had a rather limited scope. Selection of convenience sample along with a particular racial background and non-inclusion of patients who died within hours of reporting AMI acted as major drawbacks. Secondly, a selection of considerably small sample also raised questions on the reliability of the sample.

The evaluation of this research does not lead to a confident and reliable conclusion. The...

Although most of them had a direct approach and addressed specific areas instead of all these factors discussed in this research paper, however, it can be established that there is sufficient relevant research material available if all these variable factors are to be discussed in individual context in relation to AMI. However, there is still a need of an extensive study which could address the given subject and whose results can be levied on the whole population.
