Quality Improvement Subcommittee
Collection of four additional auxiliary fields to be utilized in ACTION Registry-Get With The Guidelines for hospital data during this grant-funded initiative: A. EMS Agency Name B. EMS Incident # or run # C. EMS cath lab activation from field? (y/n) D. Was the availability of ECG at receiving hospital required for activation? (y/n)
Defining two AMI data fields as follows in EMS and hospital databases: A. First Medical Contact = time the first healthcare professional is eye to eye with patient B. Symptom Onset date and time = answer to “what prompted you to call 911 or come to ED
and what time was that?”
Quality Improvement Subcommittee
• Participating staff to reinforce the message that both EMS and hospital staff are accountable to ensure EMS run sheet is received at hospital as part of the patient record (i.e. collected and placed in correct location)
• EMS Data Dictionary for approved required data fields, similar to the Action Registry – Get With The Guidelines Data Dictionary
Quality Improvement Subcommittee
• Ensuring every EMS agency documents hospital activation of STEMI (via phone or ECG transmission) in EMR narrative
• Establishing a new award to the EMS agency and hospital with the best symptom onset to arterial reperfusion (SOAR) time after each quarter of data is reported
