2024年1月2日
贝克利,W.Va. (2024年1月2日 The American College of 心脏病学 has recognized IM体育 for its demonstrated expertise and commitment in treating patients with chest pain. Raleigh General was awarded Chest Pain Center Accreditation with Primary PCI in December based on rigorous onsite evaluation of the staff’s ability to evaluate, diagnose and treat patients who may be experiencing a heart attack.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 超过730,每年有000名美国人心脏病发作. The most common symptom of a heart attack for both men and women is chest pain or discomfort. However, women are more likely to have atypical symptoms. 心脏病发作的其他症状包括, 但不限于, 一只或两只手臂刺痛或不舒服, 回来, 肩膀, 颈部或下颌, 呼吸急促(气促), 冷汗, 不寻常的疲劳, heartburn-like感觉, 恶心或呕吐, 突然的头晕和昏厥.
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is also known as coronary angioplasty. It is a non-surgical procedure that opens narrowed or blocked coronary arteries with a balloon to relieve symptoms of heart disease or reduce heart damage during or after a heart attack.
Hospitals that have earned ACC Chest Pain Center with Primary PCI Accreditation have proven exceptional competency in treating patients with heart attack symptoms and have primary PCI available 24/7 every day of the year. As required to meet the criteria of the accreditation designation, they comply with standard Chest Pain Center protocols and are equipped with a robust hypothermia program for post-cardiac arrest treatment. These facilities also maintain a "No Diversion Policy" for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients.
“Raleigh General has demonstrated its commitment to providing Southern West Virginia with excellent heart care,Deepak L. Bhatt, MD, MPH, FACC, chair of the ACC Accreditation Management Board. “行政协调会认可服务 is proud to award Raleigh General with Chest Pain Center with Primary PCI Accreditation.”
Hospitals receiving Chest Pain Center with Primary PCI Accreditation from the ACC must take part in a multi-faceted clinical process that involves: completing a gap analysis; examining variances of care, developing an action plan; a rigorous onsite review; and monitoring for sustained success. Improved methods and strategies of caring for patients include streamlining processes, 实施指引和标准, and adopting best practices in the care of patients experiencing the signs and symptoms of a heart attack. Facilities that achieve accreditation meet or exceed an array of stringent criteria and have organized a team of doctors, 护士, 临床医生, and other administrative staff that earnestly support the efforts leading to better patient education and improved patient outcomes.
I’m so proud of our team and everyone involved in this process and their commitment to our community. Said Kimberly Perdue, Cath Lab Director at Raleigh General. “我住在这里。, this is my home and I know I can send my loved ones to IM体育 and they will get the care they need and deserve.
