CPMI-1022 - Inclusion | Exclusion Criteria-1022 - Inclusion

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the presenter discusses a case scenario involving an 84-year-old female who initially presented with severe right hip pain due to a fall. The patient was diagnosed with a hip fracture and recommended for right hip arthroplasty. After being transferred to a sister hospital for the surgery, the patient experienced an acute onset of chest pain with ST elevation on an ECG. A diagnosis of STEMI (ST elevation myocardial infarction) was made, and a cardiology consult was ordered. The question posed is whether the patient meets the inclusion criteria for the receiving hospital, and the answer is yes. The presenter explains that the clinical diagnosis of STEMI is sufficient to include the patient in the registry. Factors leading to a higher mortality rate in in-hospital STEMI cases are also discussed, including delays in diagnosis and treatment complexity. The video concludes by stating that certain exclusion criteria related to transfer patients do not apply to in-hospital STEMI cases.
