5 So how was this done? Physician leadership, physician buy in Full time co ordinator/facilitator (communications, logistics, deal with SNAFU s, educational events) Hospital commitment (funding, quality, cath lab personnel) Establish effective high quality ER STEMI program Establish lines of communication (ER switchboard cath lab) Treatment guidelines Monitor outcomes, modify procedures Reduce readmissions Build on success of local program to entice outside programs to be part of the team Regular (annual?) of all participants (we include the switchboard operators) in educational forums/updates to share results/successes/challenges

7 So how was this done? Physician leadership, physician buy in Full time co ordinator/facilitator (communications, logistics, deal with SNAFU s, educational events) Hospital commitment (funding, quality, cath lab personnel) Establish effective high quality ER STEMI program (St. John s * 90) Establish lines of communication (ER switchboard cath lab) Treatment guidelines Monitor outcomes, modify procedures Reduce readmissions Build on success of local program to entice outside programs to be part of the team Regular (annual?) of all participants (we include the switchboard operators) in educational forums/updates to share results/successes/challenges
8 STEMI: Where We Started at our hospital Doing well: performing above the average hospital for STEMI care in Crusade and NRMI registries, but wanted to be exceptional Formation of AMI Team in 2003 to target performance above the top 10% of Crusade/Action registry hospitals Formal Intervention started late 2003/early 2004 Obstacles to performance improvement included distance of new ED from cath lab, lack of standardized protocols and medical record documentation.
9 AMI Team Strategic Goals Achieve D2B time of <90 minutes for 100% of STEMI patients Implement standardized, evidence based and guideline driven pathways of care to improve quality Achieve 100% compliance with admission and discharge medications for all AMI patients Achieve results above the top 10% of Action registry hospitals for STEMI care EKG done within 5 minutes for patients with chest pain ED Door to cath lab arrival of < 30 minutes Cath Lab arrival to balloon dilatation of < 25 minutes Implement pre hospital ECG
10 Methods Formation of a multidisciplinary AMI team with quarterly meetings in Fall of 2003 ED meds bundled ASA, Beta Blocker, Heparin, and Nitroglycerin ED physician empowered to concurrently activate cardiologist and cath lab team upon diagnosis of STEMI with STAR 90 page Cardiologist meets and evaluates patient in cath lab, not ED Accountability and tracking form following patient through process allowing evaluation of performance of various phases of the D2B process Implementation of guideline driven treatment protocol and procedural protocol Weekday night team resides in hospital Benchmarking of performance with other centers using Action and MIDAS registries.

27 SO HOW ARE WE DOING? STAT Heart Population: N approx. 600
28 Comparison Of STEMI Process of Care For Inter hospital Transfer: Door Balloon Times 0 % PTS NRMI 3/4 NCDR (n=4278) 2006 < 90 min. < 120 min Stat Heart- Spr Stat Heart- Carb Total Stat Heart (n=15,049) (n=338) (n=44) (n=382)
29 In Hospital Clinical Outcomes Length of hospitalization (mean ± SD days): 3.6 ± 2.5 vs. 5 ± 6.3; p=0.0001
30 Comparison Of 30 day Clinical Outcomes NRMI vs. Stat Heart: Springfield Hub % PTS 10 Meta-analysis Stat Heart/07 Stat Heart 8/08 (n=1472) (n=188) Death Non-Shock Death Re-infarction Stroke Composite
31 PROCEDURAL KEYS to Success 1. EARLY RECOGNITION OF MI starts the interventional cascade beginning with QUICK call to helicopter or ambulance for transport 2. A SINGLE call to activate Stat Heart Process in Springfield 3. Standardized Protocol/ Orders (PCC and ED physician agree to adhere to standard orders as written) 4. Standardized communications via pager identifies MI, patient departure, 15 minute arrival 5. Cath lab nurse calls after receiving departure page for brief report-cath lab nurse calls community hospital nurse. Cardiologist and team awaits arrival in cath lab. 6. Communication ON-GOING throughout the process from beginning to end 7. Rapid transportation via ground or air is mandatory. Regular meetings with these providers 8. Education provided to all Stat Heart team members 9. Data collection to promote process improvement and quality 10. Feedback and reports given promptly (immediately after each case) 11. Public education (regarding Sx of MI, program in their area) 12. Debrief with Stat Heart team members at regular intervals and especially after failures (problems compound with out intervention) 13. No Blame Environment! 14. Continue to innovate. Don t tolerate failure, don t rest on success (EKG s in the field, paramedic education, earlier initiation of Rx) 15. D2B time is important, but it s LIVES SAVED THAT REALLY COUNTS. Mortality reflects the proof in the pudding
32 Conclusions Stat Heart (Rural Inter-Hospital Transfer) Regional STEMI Program: feasible/safe with reproducible, favorable and comparable process measure outcomes to to U.S. Registry, despite program growth among broad range of of hospital systems. Between , the utilization of of this coordinated, rural inter-hospital STEMI transfer program, appears to to associated with shorter hospitalization and improved inhospital clinical outcomes, as as compared to to non- standardized pre-stat Heart STEMI care. in-
33 Conclusions Stat Heart (Rural Inter-Hospital Transfer) Improvements -- Procedural Time (wide inter-procedural/inter-operator variability) -- Standardization of of cardiac cath cath lab lab process -- Implementation of of pre-hospital ECG: Reduce door-in/door-out time time Emphasis on on program maintenance and and improvement -- Avoid complacency (delays): meetings, updates, teamwork (transport, ED s, ancillary staff, cath cath lab, lab, administration, etc) etc) -- Program-wide commitment to to collection, interpretation and and dissemination of of data data -- Nimble program: modifiable process/treatment changes RN RN Coordinator: Education, education, education!!
