Staff Recall Travel Time for ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Impacted by Traffic Congestion and Distance: A Digitally Integrated Map Software Study
Background Recent evidence suggests hospitals fail to meet guideline specified time to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for a proportion of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) presentations. Implicit in achieving this time is the rapid assembly of crucial catheter laboratory staff. As a proof-of-concept, we set out to create regional maps that graphically show the impact of traff...
متن کاملST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Background—In the United States, efforts are underway to improve timely access to percutaneous coronary intervention in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The Joint Commission (TJC) and the American College of Cardiology National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) have developed standardized definitions and clinical performance measures for STEMI. The purpose of this study was to dete...
متن کاملTherapeutic application of ultrasound: contrast-enhanced thrombolysis in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction; the Sonolysis study
Contrast enhancement by microbubble infusion has proven its applicability in the field of diagnostic ultrasound. Recent studies also indicate a therapeutic effect of the combined use of ultrasound and microbubbles. Results from animal studies demonstrate that diagnostic ultrasound in combination with intravenous microbubbles can dissolve thrombi. So far, this effect has never been tested in pat...
متن کاملMistaken ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
A 66-year-old female was transferred from an outside hospital for possible ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The patient reported feeling poorly for the last day, with epigastric pain, nausea, and multiple episodes of vomiting. Patient’s medical history was significant for diabetes mellitus, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and multiple sclerosis. Electrocardiogram (EKG) was...
متن کاملTombstoning ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Tombstoning ST elevation myocardial infarction can be described as a STEMI characterized by tombstoning ST-segment elevation. This myocardial infarction is associated with extensive myocardial damage, reduced left ventricle function, serious hospital complications and poor prognosis. Tombstoning ECG pattern is a notion beyond morphological difference and is associated with more serious clinical...
