[PMID: 38996817 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2024.132345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 06/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Door-to-balloon time (DTBT) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a performance metric by which primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) services are assessed. METHODS Consecutive patients presenting with STEMI undergoing PPCI between January 2007 to December 2019 from the Singapore Myocardial Infarction Registry were included. Patients were stratified based on DTBT (≤60 min, 61-90 min, 91-180 min) and Killip status (I-III vs. IV). Outcomes assessed included all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at 30-days and 1-year. RESULTS In total, 13,823 patients were included, with 82.59% achieving DTBT ≤90 min and 49.77% achieving DTBT ≤60 min. For Killip I-III (n = 11,591,83.85%), the median DTBT was 60[46-78]min. The 30-day all-cause mortality for DTBT of ≤60 min, 61-90 min and 91-180 min was 1.08%, 2.17% and 4.33% respectively (p < 0.001). On multivariate analysis, however, there was no significant difference for 30-day and 1-year outcomes across all DTBT (p > 0.05). For Killip IV, the median DTBT was 68[51-91]min. The 30-day all-cause mortality for DTBT of ≤60 min, 61-90 min and 91-180 min was 11.74%, 20.48% and 35.06% respectively (p < 0.001). On multivariate analysis for 30-day and 1-year outcomes, DTBT 91-180 min was an independent predictor of worse outcomes (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between DTBT of ≤60 min and 61-90 min (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION In Killip I-III patients, DTBT had no significant impact on outcomes upon adjustment for confounders. Conversely, for Killip IV patients, a DTBT of >90 min was associated with significantly higher adverse outcomes, with no differences between a DTBT of ≤60 min vs. 61-90 min. Outcomes in STEMI involve a complex interplay of factors and recommendations of a lowered DTBT of ≤60 min will require further evaluation.

Implementation of an All-Day Artificial Intelligence-Based Triage System to Accelerate Door-to-Balloon Times. Mayo Clin Proc 2022; 97:2291-2303. [PMID: 36336511 DOI: 10.1016/j.mayocp.2022.05.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2021] [Revised: 03/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To implement an all-day artificial intelligence (AI)-based system to facilitate chest pain triage in the emergency department. METHODS The AI-based triage system encompasses an AI model combining a convolutional neural network and long short-term memory to detect ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) on electrocardiography (ECG) and a clinical risk score (ASAP) to prioritize patients for ECG examination. The AI model was developed on 2907 twelve-lead ECGs: 882 STEMI and 2025 non-STEMI ECGs. RESULTS Between November 1, 2019, and October 31, 2020, we enrolled 154 consecutive patients with STEMI: 68 during the AI-based triage period and 86 during the conventional triage period. The mean ± SD door-to-balloon (D2B) time was significantly shortened from 64.5±35.3 minutes to 53.2±12.7 minutes (P=.007), with 98.5% vs 87.2% (P=.009) of D2B times being less than 90 minutes in the AI group vs the conventional group. Among patients with an ASAP score of 3 or higher, the median door-to-ECG time decreased from 30 minutes (interquartile range [IQR], 7-59 minutes) to 6 minutes (IQR, 4-30 minutes) (P<.001). The overall performances of the AI model in identifying STEMI from 21,035 ECGs assessed by accuracy, precision, recall, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, F1 score, and specificity were 0.997, 0.802, 0.977, 0.999, 0.881, and 0.998, respectively. CONCLUSION Implementation of an all-day AI-based triage system significantly reduced the D2B time, with a corresponding increase in the percentage of D2B times less than 90 minutes in the emergency department. This system may help minimize preventable delays in D2B times for patients with STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence supports improved outcomes and reduced mortality with rapid reperfusion through primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). UK national audit data (Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project [MINAP]) demonstrates minor improvements in door-to-balloon times (DTB) of <90 min but increasing call-to-balloon times (CTB). We evaluate the effect of a regional Cardiologist delivered paramedic education programme (PEP) on DTB times and appropriate use of the PPCI pathway. METHODS This was a prospective single-centre study of patients with STEMI brought directly to hospital via ambulance services. Data sources included ambulance charts, in-patient notes, British Cardiovascular Interventional Society (BCIS) database and local MINAP data. All DTB breaches were investigated. A local PEP was implemented with focus on ECG interpretation, STEMI diagnosis and appropriate use of the PPCI pathway. Non-parametric Wilcoxon rank test was used for comparisons of DTB and CTB times between direct versus ED-associated cath lab transfer. RESULTS A total of 728 patients with STEMI were admitted directly to our centre via ambulance, 66% (n=484) directly to the Catheterisation Laboratory (Cath Lab) and 34% (n=244) via the Emergency Department (ED). There was a significant increase in median DTB, 83 vs 37 min (p<0.001) and median CTB 144 vs 97.5 min (p<0.001) when transfer to the Cath Lab occurred via the ED versus direct transfer. The PEP increased direct cath lab transfers (52%-85%) and generated annual reductions in median DTB times, with sustained improvement seen throughout the 7-year study period. CONCLUSIONS Paramedic education increases direct transfer of STEMI patients to the Cath Lab, and reduces DTB times. This is an effective and reproducible intervention to facilitate timely reperfusion in STEMI.

Abstract
Objectives The objectives of this study is to confirm reduction of door‐to‐balloon (D2B) time with single‐catheter percutaneous coronary intervention (SC‐PCI) method. Background Reduction of total ischemic time is important in the emergency treatment of ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). There have been no established methods in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to shorten ischemic time via radial access. Ikari left curve was reported as a universal guiding catheter for left and right coronary arteries. Several procedure steps can be skipped by SC‐PCI method as the advantage of a universal catheter. Methods This study is a retrospective analysis of a total of 1,275 consecutive STEMI cases treated with primary PCI in 14 hospitals. Patients were divided into two groups, SC‐PCI method (n = 298) and conventional PCI method (n = 977). Primary endpoints were door‐to‐balloon (D2B) time and radiation exposure dose. Results The mean age was 68 ± 13 years old. Radial access was used in 85% of participants. PCI success was achieved in 99.5% of participants and the SC‐PCI method was successfully performed in 92.6%. The D2B time was shorter (68 ± 46 vs. 74 ± 50 min, respectively; p = .02), and the radiation exposure dose was lower (1,664 ± 970 vs. 2008 ± 1,605 mGy, respectively; p < .0001) in the SC‐PCI group than in the conventional group. Conclusion Primary PCI with SC‐PCI method for patients with STEMI demonstrated shorter D2B time and lower radiation exposure dose.

Abstract
Background Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, cardiovascular disease is still the main cause of death in developed countries. Of these deaths, acute coronary syndromes (ACS) account for a substantial percentage of deaths. Improvement in ACS outcomes, are achieved by reducing the time from symptom onset until reperfusion or total ischemic time (TIT). Nevertheless, due to the overwhelming reality at the beginning of the pandemic, acute coronary syndrome (ACS) care may have been compromised. Objectives We evaluated delays in TIT based on the date and timing of admissions in patients with STEMI, by a timeline follow-up form, before and during the current COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Between July 2018 and June 2020, two hundred and twelve patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) were admitted to our medical center. Upon presentation, cases were assigned a timeline report sheet and each time interval, from onset of symptoms to the catheterization lab, was documented. The information was later evaluated to study potential excessive delays throughout ACS management. Results Our data evidenced that during the COVID-19 pandemic ACS admissions were reduced by 34.54%, in addition to several in-hospital delays in patient's ACS management including delays in door-to-ECG time (9.43 ± 18.21 vs. 18.41 ± 28.34, p = 0.029), ECG-to-balloon (58.25 ± 22.59 vs. 74.39 ± 50.30, p = 0.004) and door-to-balloon time (57.41 ± 27.52 vs. 69.31 ± 54.14, p = 0.04). Conclusions During the pandemic a reduction in ACS admissions occurred in our hospital that accompanied with longer in-hospital TIT due to additional tests, triage, protocols to protect and prevent infection within hospital staff, and maintenance of adequate standards of care. However, door-to-balloon time was maintained under 90 min.

Abstract
Purpose One of the most frequent causes of cardiac mortality is ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Delay in the management of STEMI patients is a cause of high mortality and morbidity. This study aims to determine the effect of the implementation of the CODE STEMI program on major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and mortality of STEMI patients at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital. Patients and Methods This was a retrospective cohort study that enrolled 207 STEMI patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in 2015–2018. The patients were divided into two groups. The first group was treated prior to establishing the CODE STEMI program. The other group was treated according to the program, which was implemented in January 2017. Data were collected from medical records, and we retrospectively analyzed all in-hours, MACE, and mortality of STEMI patients from both groups as primary outcomes. Data analysis was done using the Mann–Whitney and chi-square test. Results There were 72 and 135 patients in the pre‐CODE STEMI and CODE STEMI groups, respectively. D2BT was significantly reduced by 130 min (288±306 vs 158±81, P< 0.001) since the implementation of CODE STEMI program. There were trends to lower in-hospital mortality rates (8.3% vs 4.4%, RR = 0.53) and MACE at 30 days (48.61% vs 37.78%, RR = 0.77). Conclusion Implementation of the CODE STEMI program can reduce door-to-balloon time and decrease the MACE and mortality rate in STEMI patients in general hospitals.
