Door To Balloon

Background: Door-to-balloon-time (D2BT) is a national hospital metric for quality of care among patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) but STEMI patients with cardiac arrest (CA) are excluded from D2BT public reporting metrics. The association of D2BT with mortality in STEMI patients with cardiac arrest (CA) in the contemporary era of rapid primary PCI is unknown. We assessed the association of D2BT and outcomes in patients with STEMI+CA. Methods: We reviewed consecutive cases of STEMI and CA, defined as loss of pulse requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation and/or defibrillation, treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at our center from 1/1/11-12/31/16.We assessed characteristics and outcomes among these patients by quartile of D2BT (Q1: 21-82 minutes, Q2: 83-106 minutes, Q3: 109-139 minutes, Q4: 141-489 minutes). Results: We identified 145 patients with STEMI+CA. Increasing quartiles of D2BT were associated with higher proportion of female sex (p=0.040), Caucasian race (p=0.001), and dyslipidemia (p=0.008). The use of guideline-directed medical therapy prior to PCI (aspirin, P2Y12 inhibitor, and anticoagulant) and the occurrence of in-hospital post-PCI adverse events were similar between groups. We observed a trend toward increased in-hospital mortality associated with increasing D2BT (Q1: 8.3%, Q2: 10.8%, Q3: 19.4%, Q4: 22.2%, p=0.059, Figure). Conclusion: D2BT is associated with in-hospital mortality among patients with STEMI+CA. Efforts should be made to implement systems of care to reduce disparities in D2BT among appropriate patients within this population.

Background: Rapid door-to-balloon times in ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention are associated with favorable outcomes. Objectives: We evaluated the effects of prearrival direct notification calls to interventional cardiologists on door-to-balloon time for ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: A 24-h hotline was created to allow prearrival direct notification calls to interventional cardiologists when transferring ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients. In an urban, tertiary referral center, patients who visited via inter-facility or the emergency department directly were included. Clinical parameters, time to reperfusion therapy, and in-hospital mortality were compared between patients with and without prearrival notifications. Results: Of 228 ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients, 95 (41.7%) were transferred with prearrival notifications. In these patients, door-to-balloon time was shorter (50.0 vs 60.0 min, p = 0.010) and the proportion of patients with door-to-balloon time < 90 min was higher (89.5% vs 75.9%, p = 0.034) than patients without notifications. These improvements were more pronounced during “off-duty” hours (52.0 vs 78.0 min, p = 0.001; 88.3% vs 72.3%, p = 0.047, respectively) than during “on-duty” hours (37.5 vs 43.5 min, p = 0.164; 94.4% vs 79.4%, p = 0.274, respectively). In addition, door-to-activation time (–39 vs 11 min, p < 0.001) and door-to-catheterization laboratory arrival time (33 vs 42 min, p = 0.007) were shorter in patients with prearrival notifications than those without. However, in-hospital mortality was similar between the two groups (6.3% vs 6.8%, p = 0.892). Conclusion: Prearrival direct notification calls to interventional cardiologists significantly improved the door-to-balloon time and the proportion of patients with door-to-balloon time < 90 min through rapid patient transport in primary percutaneous coronary intervention scheduled hospital and readiness of the catheterization laboratory.

Background ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains the second leading cause of death in Canada. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been recognized as an effective method for treating STEMI. Improved access to primary PCI can be achieved through the implementation of regional PCI centres, which was the impetus for implementing the PCI program in an east Toronto hospital in 2009. As such, the purpose of this study was to measure the efficacy of this program regional expansion. Methods A retrospective review of 101 patients diagnosed with STEMI from May to Sept 2010 was conducted. The average door-to-balloon time for these STEMI patients was calculated and the door-to-balloon times using different methods of arrival were analyzed. Method of arrival was by one of three ways: paramedic initiated referral; patient walk-ins to PCI centre emergency department; or transfer after walk-in to community hospital emergency department. Results The study found that mean door-to balloon time for PCI was 112.5 minutes. When the door-to-balloon times were compared across the three arrival methods, patients who presented by paramedic-initiated referral had significantly shorter door-to-balloon times, (89.5 minutes) relative to those transferred (120.9 minutes) and those who walked into a PCI centre (126.7 minutes) (p = 0.047). Conclusions The findings suggest that the partnership between the hospital and its EMS partners should be continued, and paramedic initiated referral should be expanded across Canada and EMS systems where feasible, as this level of coverage does not currently exist nationwide. Investments in regional centres of excellence and the creation of EMS partnerships are needed to enhance access to primary PCI.
