Only 14 minutes! Changsha Fourth Hospital races against time and refreshes the "heart" speed again!

Time is myocardium, time is life. Recently, the Chest Pain Center of Changsha Fourth Hospital once again demonstrated its efficient treatment capabilities. By "double bypassing" (bypassing the emergency department and the intensive care unit of the cardiology department) and directly reaching the interventional catheterization room, it successfully treated a patient with acute inferior wall myocardial infarction. The D2W (the time from the acute myocardial infarction patient entering the hospital gate to the time the interventional surgical guidewire passes through the lesion) time was only 14 minutes! This is far lower than the international rescue standard of 90 minutes for acute myocardial infarction patients! It has once again refreshed the D2W record of the Chest Pain Center of the hospital!

At around 19:00 on January 23, Mr. Zhao suddenly suffered chest pain. His family members quickly dialed the 120 emergency number. The hospital's chest pain center immediately activated the "chest pain green channel". After receiving the patient, the emergency team immediately completed the electrocardiogram and uploaded it to the Changsha Fourth Hospital Chest Pain Center Group.

After checking the electrocardiogram, Hu Zhiwen, the doctor on duty at the Chest Pain Center , considered it an acute inferior wall myocardial infarction. He then communicated with the patient and his family about the condition and gave him a packet of oral "myocardial infarction medicine".

At 19:23 on the same day, the ambulance arrived at the hospital and went directly to the catheterization room. The cardiovascular intervention team was ready. At 19:30, coronary angiography was started, which showed that the right coronary artery was blocked. At 19:37, the doctor successfully passed the blocked part of the blood vessel with a coronary guidewire. At 20:02, the entire interventional treatment was completed. After this treatment, Mr. Zhao's symptoms were significantly improved and his vital signs were stable.

Jiang Zhiming, deputy director and chief physician of the third area of ​​the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine , introduced that when facing patients with acute myocardial infarction, every time medical staff treats patients, they are playing a game with time and they have to race against time.

The Chest Pain Center of Changsha Fourth Hospital has connected multiple links inside and outside the hospital, and has built a green channel from onset to treatment through information transmission through WeChat groups, remote consultations, "seamless" regional collaboration, bypassing the emergency room and cardiovascular wards, and cardiovascular physicians being "on call" at all times and interventional teams arriving quickly. The time from the onset of the disease to the passage of the guidewire is continuously shortened.

The continuous optimization of DW time is inseparable from the mature and perfect operation mechanism of the hospital's chest pain center, the tacit cooperation between multiple disciplines, and the embodiment of the benevolence and responsibility of the medical staff of Changsha Fourth Hospital. In every emergency visit and every seamless connection, the Chest Pain Center of Changsha Fourth Hospital always races against time with rapid actions and protects the health of the people with superb medical skills!
