The data collected regarding this age range revealed issues that had not previously been evaluated in our country. That undoubtedly proposes a different solution for the future based on a strict scientific analysis Results, for example, the number of patients who received a stent in relation to coronary artery surgery is greater than 6 to 1, and compared to surgery without pump and minimally invasive from 69 to 1 Conclusion The Argentinian Perspective is good because has an excellent level of qualified medical training in its cardiac and interventional Cardiologist services, as well as healthcare infrastructure distributed throughout the country, which will undoubtedly be able to respond to the new challenges posed for the post-pandemic stage
