Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
D-to-W time (Door to Wire Time)
Door-to-wire time refers to the duration from a patient's arrival at the emergency department (ED) to the successful placement of a wire into the coronary artery during a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) procedure.
From the start of the emergency visit to the following 48 hours.
Cost Outcome Measure
Total expenditures, from the start of the emergency visit to 90 days post-discharge (in USD), for comparison between the intervention and control groups, based on records from NHI (National Health Insurance) claims data.
From the start of the emergency visit to 90 days post-discharge.
Secondary Outcomes (15)
Door-to-Wire time less than 90 minutes
48 hours
In-hospital all-cause Mortality Rate
90-day follow
In-hospital cardiac death
90-day follow
Length of ICU

Length of hospitalization

- +10 more secondary outcomes
Other Outcomes (6)
Emergent CAG without PCI
From the start of the emergency visit to the following 48 hours.
Procedure related vascular complications
From the start of the emergency visit to the following 48 hours.
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury
90-day follow
- +3 more other outcomes
Study Arms (2)
AI-ECG P4P program
EXPERIMENTALAI-ECG-assisted detection of OMI within the P4P program. The AI-ECG system will conduct a real-time analysis of the ECG. When the system identifies potential OMI cases, it will immediately send short message service notifications to the on-duty cardiologists. This will enable the cardiologists to promptly review and confirm the diagnosis.
Standard of care
NO INTERVENTIONPotential OMI patients will be initially assessed by frontline physicians. If OMI is suspected, the frontline physicians will promptly notify the on-duty cardiologists, who will then review the case for confirmation.
Interventions
The AI-ECG system will conduct a real-time analysis of the ECG. When the system identifies potential OMI cases, it will immediately send short message service notifications to the on-duty cardiologists. This will enable the cardiologists to promptly review and confirm the diagnosis.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients in the emergency department
- Patients received at least 1 ECG examination.
You may not qualify if:
- The patients received ECG at the period of inactive AI-ECG system.
- Patients with a history of coronary angiography within the past 3 days.
