Structured PICO

Are prehospital, ED, and hospital processes of care associated with shorter door-in-door-out times in STEMI patients requiring transfer?

Population

STEMI patients requiring transfer

Intervention

Prehospital, ED, and hospital processes of care (including EMS processes)

Outcome

door-in-door-out timessurrogate

Adoption of integrated prehospital, ED, and hospital care processes, particularly EMS processes, is associated with significantly shorter door-in-door-out times for STEMI patients requiring transfer.
