A Smart Chest Pain Center to Improve Quality Control and Reduce Doctor's Workload of Acute Myocardial Infarction

Crit Pathw Cardiol. 2020 Dec;19(4):161-165. doi: 10.1097/HPC.0000000000000239.

Abstract

The establishment of a chest pain center (CPC) is an important strategy to improve the treatment of urgent cardiovascular disease, especially acute myocardial infarction. In order to monitor and continuously improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment of CPCs, accurate records of key time points must be made in the diagnosis and treatment of fatal chest pain, which consumes tremendous manpower and resources. Our research combined the application of the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, and other techniques, to establish a smart CPC that can automatically record key time points, which significantly reduced the workload of doctors with more reliable, unified, and traceable data. Our solution to the CPC should be a promising plan for future CPC construction.
