Feedback Intervention and Treatment Times in ST- Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Part I (Pilot Phase): The purpose of this study is to examine if formalized data assessment and systematic feedback improves treatment times (i.e. contact-to-balloon time and door-to-balloon time) in patients with myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation (STEMI). Part II (Implementation Phase): The Purpose is to prospectively investigate if survival can be improved by stringent use of this concept of formalized data analysis and systematic feedback of procedural and clinical data to all participating physicians and other members of the STEMI patients treating personnel. Part III (Advance Phase): The purpose is to develop, introduce and evaluate prospectively an automated, highly standardized feedback tool informing participating centers on key performance characteristics (procedural and clinical outcomes).
