Direct to Cath Lab Protocol
EMS
1. EMS transmits ECG to OLMC MD
FDNY OLMC
2. OLMC MD confirms ST elevation and verifies direct
referral criteria with EMS
3. OLMC notifies and transmits ECG and patient
demographic info to PCI center ED
Receiving Hospital ED
(Meet, greet, and escort EMS)
4. ED activates STEMI pager, including information
that patient is Direct Referral to Cath Lab and ETA
5. Cath lab calls ED to confirm availability to proceed

them to cath lab
Pre-Notification Protocol
•
FDNY will transmit the ECG and make a phone call (providing the necessary demographic
information to allow for preregistration) for all patients with ischemic type chest discomfort
and ST segment elevation >1mm.
•
For all cases with >2 mm ST segment elevation who meet the agreed upon criteria
for “direct referral to the cath lab” FDNY will use specific language stating that the patient
qualifies for “direct transport to the cath lab”.
•
Hospitals will then preactivate the cath lab and follow their procedures on how to expedite
the patient to the cath lab.
Note: If the field ECG cannot be transmitted from the field to the hospital, FDNY will still call a
“direct referral to the cath lab” if the patient meets the criteria. (Note: the field EMS personnel
will still communicate verbally with FDNY On-Line Medical Control MDs who will make the
determination on the case).

Notes
•
The hospital needs to escort EMS to the hospital’s Cath Lab on the EMS stretcher. EMS
will not take any patient directly from the field to a PCI Center’s cath lab.
•
Hospital staff must meet EMS within five minutes of arrival and the total time spent
awaiting an escort is not to exceed ten minutes.
•
If no staff is available within 10 minutes, the patient shall be delivered to ED staff.
•
With the availability of the transmitted field or hard copy ECG, time should not be wasted to
obtain an ECG at the time of arrival.
•
If the cath lab is closed, the patient will then reside in the ED.
•
Hospital “arrival time” is the time the patient is brought to the ED by EMS.
• If the field ECG cannot be transmitted, FDNY will still call a “direct referral to the cath lab”
if the patient meets the criteria.
