Pulse rhythm

Pulse rhythm

Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Background:

Timely restoration of coronary blood flow is critical for STEMI patient outcomes.
A secure mobile application, STEMIcathAID, was developed to streamline STEMI patient transfers.
The AHA Get With The Guidelines-Coronary Artery Disease® registry is a national quality improvement program.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the impact of the STEMIcathAID app on key metrics for STEMI patient transfer.
To compare pre- and post-implementation data for STEMI transfers.

Main Methods:

A pilot project involved physicians, nurses, and technicians from Emergency Medicine and Nursing Departments.
From July 2021 to February 2023, STEMIcathAID alarms were activated in parallel with traditional phone calls.
Data from 31 STEMIcathAID-assisted transfers were compared with 42 traditional pathway transfers.

Main Results:

Median door-to-device time decreased from 106 to 86 minutes (p < 0.001) with STEMIcathAID.
All STEMI cases met the AHA goal of door-to-device time ≤ 120 minutes post-implementation.
Median door-in-door-out time at the referral hospital decreased from 56 to 50 minutes (p = 0.01).

Conclusions:

Implementing the STEMIcathAID mobile app significantly improved the quality of care for STEMI patient transfers.
The app facilitated a substantial reduction in critical transfer times, enhancing patient outcomes.
