Summary

The primary objective of this study is to assess whether an aggressive quality improvement intervention strategy will decrease time from hospital presentation to first balloon inflation in non-transfer patients with acute ST segment elevation MI (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Twelve hospitals in Michigan were randomized to either aggressive intervention or control. The intervention consisted of Grand Rounds at each hospital, sharing of best practices, and coordinating center staff working closely with staff at each intervention hospital to discuss solutions to barriers to rapid treatment for STEMI patients.
